Bars in the Park - Volunteers Wanted!

Bars in the Park is a one-day celebration of culture, creativity, and community empowerment in Gloucester, led by CHISPA CIC and Kings Jam Festival.

Launching on 12th October 2024, this event marks the culmination of four years of work and features two major highlights: the long-awaited Multipurpose Bar Park and the return of Kings Jam Festival. Taking place at Bakers Field, Gloucester Park (next to the Skate Park) from 10am to 10pm, the event will showcase performances, workshops and a freestyle Jam from both local and international talent. Bars in the Park aims to empower young people and artists while transforming public spaces into vibrant cultural hubs for the community.
