Fun-packed, free family Picnic in the Park returns to Tarring this summer
With free entry and free or low-cost rides, events, demonstrations and games plus crafts and stalls from lots of local independent businesses, it’s a great day out to have fun with the family on a budget. Visitors can bring their own picnic but there will also be stalls for food and drinks - and ice cream of course!
This year, to celebrate the introduction of live music to the event, the theme is "Tarring Top of the Pops". Children can dress as their favourite pop stars or musical heroes for a chance to win a prize.

Hide AdThe Picnic is organised by community volunteers, supported by the Friends of Tarring Park, Rotary Club of Tarring Park and Worthing Lions. Plans for the event are now well underway, and include a contingency date of 21st August in case of bad weather.
Tarring Councillor Hazel Thorpe has been involved with the Picnic since it first began in 2016. As Hazel says, “Picnic in the Park at Tarring is a fantastic free entry community event and has always been very popular with families during the long summer holidays. We hope it will be especially welcome this year when so many families are feeling the effects of the increased cost of living.”
