In the summer of 2004 Parklife was born, a community event designed to bring a programme of free activities into the parks and open spaces in Nottingham city.

Each year Parklife has grown with more and more partners and organisations keen to get involved and show off their services or activities  to the local community.

Last year we were ready and raring to go with 12 Parklife events lined up, however due to the poor weather we had to cancel or reschedule two of them - which wasn't bad going considering the wet summer!  The rainy weather certainly didn’t put off the city residents who turned out in force, particularly at the Vernon Park event, and we actually attracted a combined record attendance last year with over 16,000 people enjoying the activities.

2008 is the 5th year of Parklife, and once again we have a great programme of exciting activities available, including sports,  bouncy castles, slides, dance, a climbing wall, circus skills, arts and crafts, plus so much more.

Parklife events provide free fun for everyone.

Get out, get active and have fun in your local community park this summer!
