The Bandstand in Ventnor Park with lots of people milling around for Ventnor-Day

Ventnor Day set to celebrate community spirit and small businesses with free event in July

Ventnor Day will take place on Saturday 6th July at Ventnor Park from 12.00 noon to 6pm. The event is free.

Ventnor Day is organised by a partnership of Ventnor Town Council, Ventnor Carnival Association and Ventnor Putting Green. It’s a celebration of our town’s community spirit and our voluntary and community sector – with live music, performance, stalls, and food in the picturesque setting of Ventnor Park.

It’s a great opportunity to find out and support Ventnor’s voluntary and community sector and enjoy a free fun day out.

Promoting town centre and Esplanade businesses
Following a series of consultation meetings with Town Centre businesses, Ventnor Town Council and its partners will also use the day to  promote town centre and Esplanade businesses – with live music and  craft markets in the town and on the Esplanade -and accessible transport to and from the town centre to Ventnor Park.

Ventnor Mayor Steve Cooper said,

“We have listened carefully to our local businesses and want to see the town centre and Esplanade benefit from Ventnor Day.

“With over a hundred stalls, Ventnor Day has outgrown its original town centre site – but there are lots of things that can be done to bring visitors into the town centre – not just on Ventnor Day – but throughout the summer season.

“We are looking at a number of ideas – including establishing craft markets, live music and entertainment in the town centre and on the Esplanade and better transport links to and from Ventnor Park.”
