The Big Hillsborough Poetry Picnic

Join us in Hillsborough Park for a brand new event for ages 6+ and their families: THE POETRY PICNIC!
Saturday 9 June, shows at 1pm and 3pm, in the Pavilion in Hillsborough Park. Tickets £7.50.
A snack heavy celebration of music and poetry, with poet Simon Mole and musician Gecko. We’ll play fun (and quite silly) games to get to know each other and build your confidence and skill with words, then help you pen a poem with the power to send your picnic blanket skywards. And we’ll play some Beatles meets the Beastie Boys style bangers of our own.
Refreshments will be available to purchase, or you can BYOB (Bring Your Own Biscuits!)
