Let’s Get Together!

Sunday 24 September 2023, 12-4pm

What is it?

This Chorlton Get Together is a family-friendly, community-led gathering in the heart of Chorlton, along the lines of similar events held very successfully in 2019 and 2022.

We will close a stretch of Wilbraham Road – a central, high-profile and accessible location – because we want as many people as possible to see what’s happening and to be able to join in. 

We’ll have a range of fun activities and creative spaces, including a series of outdoor ‘living rooms’  for people to gather, chat and play. The event will demonstrate how Chorlton can (and does!) cooperate for a greener, kinder, more connected neighbourhood. It will offer a safe space for children and young people to express themselves.

The traffic-free street will help highlight the benefits of safer streets following on from World Car-Free Day (which is earlier that week) – by bringing the sweet sound of conversation, laughter and play to Chorlton’s main street, in place of traffic noise and fumes. It also contributes to Chorlton and Chorlton Park climate action plans.
