FundAFest promises plenty of family fun this summer

Known for organising colourful and vibrant family events across the North-East, FundAFest will be transforming the sports hub at Elizabeth Way into a venue of entertainment and activities.

The Hornby Park Family Fest, presented by FundAFest, promises a weekend packed with attractions for all ages. It is scheduled to take place on Saturday, June 28, and Sunday, June 29, with festivities running from noon until 7pm each day.

Visitors can look forward to a diverse line up of live music, captivating street art displays, delicious street food vendors, engaging street performers and hands-on circus workshops.

There will also be a variety of inflatables that have become a trademark of previous Hornby Park fun days, although an extra charge applies for these.

FundAFest has a proven track record of success, having organised or supported events across the North, from Lindisfarne to the Wintertide festival in Hartlepool, which marks their only previous venture in the town.
