Green Festival

Broxtowe's Green Festivals

What is a Green Festival? 

Our Green Festivals are a series of events designed to educate and engage with communities, helping them to make more sustainable choices in their day-to-day lives.

The events are free to attend, and with various stalls managed by local people, small businesses and groups, there are plenty of fun activities for all ages - including arts and crafts, music, local food vendors and games.

Green Festival 2024 

Thank you to everyone who came along to enjoy the day at our Green Festival in Eastwood on 21 September 2024. It was a great opportunity for sharing knowledge and learning new skills to help us all take care of the environment.

With over 500 attendees and 45 stallholders there was something for everyone including free trees and Dr Bike sessions delivered by Bikes Love You so that residents could fix their bikes up for free! Children enjoyed lots of activities, like face painting, a stilt walker, pedaling a bike to make ice cream and one of the Council’s refuse vehicles. 

When we come together to act on climate change, we can all make a big impact. #SmallChangeBigDifference
