Kingston Green Fair, UK Green Family Event
The Green Fair has been in operation since 1987, attracting nearly 15,000 visitors each year making it the UK’s most successful one-day green family event! 100’s of stalls; vegetarian food; showcase technology; performance; workshops; arts & crafts; sustainability demonstrations; music; healing; dance and drama; circus skills; theatre; walkabout; cafes & cakes; community campaigns.
The ‘Green Fair’ is Family Centred and offers cultural performances. The performances include live music, dance, drama, arts and crafts, demonstrations and activities and many other forms of community consultation. They aim to promote sustainable technology, community empowerment, fair trade, animal rights, peace and reconciliation and a wide range of environmental solutions. You won’t hear any noises, as The Green Fair only uses energy and power from the wind, sun and bicycles. The organisers always take Health & Safety issues seriously as well as local residents concerns about the fair.
The Green Fair is a non-profit making event. Many of the 250 organisers and workers are volunteers or share expenses. The entrance fee, together with a contribution from stall holders, covers all the costs and includes the provision of toilets, marquees, performers fees, health and safety and publicity.
