Great Get Togethers is an initiative inspired by the late Labour MP, Jo Cox who believed we had more in common than that which divides us. There’s lots being held all over the country and this street party in Bankside promises to be a brilliant, buzzy day with a ton of live entertainment, including theatre and music from ska to Latin across three stages.
Expect comedy, Swing Patrol dance workshops and an amazing human tower. There’ll also be a headdress parade, wacky races and a dog show – Bark Off – open to all your pooches, so get ’em primed and primped.
And you don’t need to miss the England match as that’s being shown as well!
