Date set for the 20th annual Nailsea Community Skate Park Festival
Organisers of the Nailsea Community Skate Park Festival have confirmed this year’s date, which celebrates the 20th occasion of the Skate Park Festival and will be at the traditional venue of the Millennium Park in Nailsea, on Saturday 25th June 2022, 1pm – 5pm.
Sadly the last two years’ organisers have been unable to run the festival due to Covid restrictions and are really looking forward to celebrating the 20th anniversary by bringing it back to the Millennium Park.
Plans for the day will include skateboard, scooter and BMX competitions, with stalls and activities to participate in, and of course, lots to eat and drink.
As with any event such as this, the organisers are really keen to increase the size of the team as the event grows, especially on our 20th anniversary, and if you have enjoyed the skate park whilst using it, or watching your children and teens, and would like to give something back through helping that would be fantastic. Anybody interested in this should get in touch with Phil Williams (festival director) phil@christiansurfers.co.uk.
The Skate Park Festival are keen to highlight what goes on in Nailsea and the surrounding areas for all those attending the festival. Therefore, application forms for a stall or an area, if showcasing a sport, will be available soon. If you would like to receive a form as a previous stall holder, or not been involved before and would like to be added to the mailing list, please e-mail nailseaskatefest@gmail.com
Would you like to be involved in sponsorship?
The event is run purely from local funding donations and takings on the day itself, both of which we are extremely grateful for, so if you would be interested in becoming an official sponsor or would like to find out more details of the opportunities that exist, please contact Phil Williams on phil@christiansurfers.co.uk
Huge thanks for all those already involved in the planning of this year’s event, particularly those from Holy Trinity and Trendlewood Church, Nailsea Town Council, Christians Together in Nailsea and all the individual volunteers giving up their time. Festival updates will follow in the press but also via the Facebook pages ‘Nailsea Skatepark Project’ and ‘Nailsea Skate Park and Activities Showcase group’. We very much look forward to seeing you on Saturday 25th June 2022 for what has become a significant date in the Nailsea and district calendar.
Its going to be great to be back – make a note of the date and get involved.
