Get involved in your community

Street parties are gatherings that bring people in the local community together. They provide an opportunity to meet and get to know your neighbours, have friendly chats, and offer support if needed. These parties are often organised for special occasions like the Platinum Jubilee celebration and Coronation, or maybe a sporting event. People of all ages and backgrounds usually attend these events and they are led by the neighbours on the street.

We encourage residents to host simple street parties. These parties should take place on a single residential street, without external publicity so they are for you and your neighbours. If you are interested in organising a street party, please visit this web page (opens new window) for more information on licenses, guidelines and costs.

Don't forget to check our community grants to see if there are any funds available to help you.
