Ventnor Day 2023, this Saturday 1st July

Ventnor Day will take place on Saturday at Ventnor Park and Putting Green from 12.00 noon to 6.00 pm. 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.

The event will be opened by Mayor Steve Cooper, with the Ventnor Carnival Queens and Ventnor Comic Jazz Band.

There is a full programme of music and performance on both stages – please see details enclosed.

Food and drink is being provided by Curry on Wheels, Tee in the Park, Lady Scarlett’s Tea Parlour, Better Days Café and Crave Ice Cream. 

Mayor of Ventnor, Steve Cooper– “We are delighted to once again invite both Ventnorians and Islanders to our beautiful park to celebrate our community. Last year’s Ventnor day a great success and we look forward to building upon that. Huge thanks go to all our performers and volunteers for supporting the event. I hope we will see you there.”
