Experience a weekend of live performances, art installations and creative drop-in sessions.

Around The Lake Festival is a free 2-day outdoor festival for all the family, with creativity to discover at every turn. The festival is taking place on Saturday 13 July and Sunday 14 July from 1-5pm each day, with the exception of Crossings by Luke Jerram running until Wednesday 17 July.

You are invited to experience Tilgate Park in a whole new way with a lineup packed full of live performances, art installations, drop-in creativity and more. Visitors to the festival can experience stories on rowing boats, circus in the forest, a peacock puppet, a bee hive especially for Crawley, poetry trails, foraging walks and more.

We encourage visitors to explore and celebrate the green spaces of Tilgate Park through seeing, tasting and hearing the park in a whole new way, with a splash of creativity.

All activity at the festival is FREE.

Around The Lake Festival is produced by Creative Playground, supported by Crawley Borough Council.

Creative Playground is part of Without Walls.
