Not particularly “eco”? That’s absolutely fine. Come anyway.

Come for the live music drifting across Carshalton Park. Come for something delicious to eat, a cold beer, a slice of homemade cake, beautiful handmade finds and the pleasure of spending a summer Bank Holiday with friends and family.

Wander. Browse. Taste. Listen. Linger.

You don’t need to arrive with strong views about the environment. Just come and enjoy a genuinely great day out — and you may leave having discovered a brilliant local organisation, an irresistible product, a new idea or simply a corner of the EcoFair you didn’t expect to love. Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, 10.30am–8pm, Carshalton Park. www.ecofair.uk

Three weeks to go!

On Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, Carshalton Park comes alive for one of the biggest community days of the year.

Picture three solar-powered stages of live music and entertainment, more than 120 stalls to explore, fantastic food, handmade crafts, children's activities, local organisations, environmental ideas, real ale, homemade cake and thousands of people enjoying a summer's day together.

The EcoFair runs from 10.30am until 8pm, so come for a couple of hours, stay for the afternoon—or make a whole day of it.

The event is organised entirely by volunteers and helps raise funds for EcoLocal's environmental and community work.

Music lovers

One park. Three stages. A whole day of live performance. Music is at the heart of the EcoFair.

The Main Stage sits in Carshalton Park's wonderful natural open-air amphitheatre, showcasing an exciting mix of local and regional talent.

At the Music Café, live acoustic music comes with tea, coffee and homemade cake.

And amongst the trees, the Performing Arts Stage brings together music, performance and spoken word, with Sutton Writers joining us for the first time this year and Carshalton's own Cryer Folk taking over the programme from 4pm.

And here's the EcoFair twist: all three stages are powered by the sun.
Come and discover your new favourite performer. www.ecofair.uk

Turn it up. The EcoFair Main Stage is back.

On Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, from 10.30am–8pm, the EcoFair takes over Carshalton Park for a full day of live music, food, drink, entertainment and more than 120 stalls. Check out the details at www.ecofair.uk.

And right at the heart of it is the Main Stage.

This isn't music tucked away in a marquee. The stage sits in Carshalton Park's spectacular natural open-air amphitheatre, where the grassy banks rise around the action and create one of the most distinctive places in the area to watch a band.

Grab your mates, find a spot on the hillside and settle in with some food and a drink from the bar — or head down towards the stage and get closer to the action.

Throughout the day we'll be cranking up rock, pop, indie, soul, blues and more, showcasing some fantastic local and regional talent. And there's one important difference from your average festival stage: the whole thing is powered by the sun.

Great bands. Cold beer. Open air. A natural amphitheatre. And a summer Bank Holiday stretching ahead of you.

Sounds like a pretty good way to spend a Monday. The EcoFair — Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, 10.30am–8pm, Carshalton Park, www.ecofair.uk

Make a date with the EcoFair this Bank Holiday Monday…

There are some summer days that are simply too good to spend at home.

On Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, from 10.30am–8pm, the EcoFair takes over Carshalton Park for a gloriously indulgent day of music, food, beautiful things, fascinating discoveries and good company. Find out more at www.ecofair.uk.

Imagine meeting your friends with the sound of live music drifting across the park. Wander together through more than 120 stalls, linger over beautiful handmade crafts, discover something irresistible from a local maker, then follow the delicious aromas until you find exactly what you fancy for lunch.

Later? Perhaps a glass from the bar while you listen to another band. Or disappear into the Music Café for tea and one of the WI’s wonderful homemade cakes. Explore the wellbeing activities, discover intriguing community and environmental stalls, or simply find a comfortable spot on the grass and settle down for a long overdue catch-up.

That’s the beauty of the EcoFair. There’s no right way to spend the day.

Come with the family. Gather a group of friends. Arrange to meet someone there. Or come on your own and surrender to curiosity — wander, browse, taste, listen and see where the day takes you.

Just don’t make too many plans for afterwards. You may find you’re having far too good a time to leave.

The conversations you didn’t know you were going to have…

The EcoFair returns to Carshalton Park on Bank Holiday Monday 31 August, from 10.30am–8pm. Find out more at www.ecofair.uk.

Among more than 120 stalls, three solar-powered stages, fabulous food and all the bustle of the EcoFair, there’s another attraction that’s rather harder to describe — the people you meet.

Wander through the park and you’ll encounter an extraordinary collection of local charities, voluntary organisations and community projects, staffed by people with stories to tell, ideas to share and an infectious enthusiasm for what they do.

Perhaps a conversation will introduce you to an activity you never knew existed. Maybe you’ll discover a cause that captures your imagination, somewhere you’d love to volunteer, a new group to join, or useful support for you or someone you know. Or perhaps you’ll simply meet someone fascinating and find yourself lingering at their stall far longer than you intended.

That’s part of the seduction of the EcoFair. Come without a plan. Wander. Talk. Ask questions. Follow your curiosity.

Because amongst all the music, food and entertainment, you might just stumble across a new interest, a new opportunity — or even some new friends.

More than 120 stalls. And you never quite know what might tempt you...

There’s something wonderfully seductive about wandering through the EcoFair with absolutely no idea what you’re going to discover next.

Perhaps it will be a beautiful handmade creation that catches your eye. An unusual plant you simply have to take home. Something delicious you hadn’t intended to buy. Or an intriguing conversation with a local artist, independent business, charity or voluntary group that leads you somewhere completely unexpected.

With more than 120 outdoor stalls, there’s plenty to explore — from artisan crafts, plants and food to fascinating demonstrations, community organisations and inspiring ideas for living a little greener.

So forget the shopping list. Wander. Browse. Taste. Talk. Linger. Let yourself be tempted. Because sometimes the best things you take home from the EcoFair are the things you never knew you were looking for.
