Spark Drummers – Moment of Lights Performance

International street theatre performers Spark! drummers return to Knowsley for a rescheduled performance in Halewood Triangle Park on Sunday 20 October.
Spark! performed across Knowsley’s town centres at the start of the year to launch Knowsley’s 50th anniversary year. Sadly, an amber weather warning meant that the Halewood performance had to be rescheduled. The performance promises to be a live music and movement spectacular!
The free family-friendly performance will take place at Halewood Triangle Park on Sunday 20 October from 5.30pm. Specific timings for the event and further information will be shared closer to the date.
Please note that there will be no parking at Halewood Triangle Park on the evening of the event, so we ask that spectators attend on foot or by public transport. There will be very limited disability parking on site. Further details will be shared on culture Knowsley’s website and social media.

Tomorrow sees the start of October, a time when the weather changes to cold and wet and the days get shorter. This can be a time of struggle for some.

But it is also a great chance to start a month of positivity and the Action for Happiness chart is a great way to start.

Halewood Carnival Postponed

HALEWOOD CARNIVAL POSTPONED UNTIL SATURDAY 31st AUGUST!

After many site visits this week, we have had to make the decision to postpone this year’s Carnival. Unfortunately due to the wet weather we have had over the last few weeks Hollies Field is waterlogged and unsafe for the Fair and Stalls to access.

We have therefore rescheduled for Saturday 31st August.

We look forward to seeing you all on the day.
