All the fun of the seaside comes to Loughborough town centre

Published: Mon 12th August, 2024

Families will have the opportunity to be beside the seaside at a three-day event in Loughborough later this month.

Loughborough by the Sea will take place in Loughborough’s market place from 10am until 4pm from Sunday 18 August to Tuesday 20 August, 2024 and will see the town centre transformed to a beach-style location.

The event is being organised by Charnwood Borough Council’s markets team, Love Loughborough BID, I Need a Fun Fair and On The Scene Event Management.

Alongside market stalls and entertainment, the event will feature children’s fun fair rides and a bouncy castle.

Cllr Jennifer Tillotson, the Council’s lead member for economic development, regeneration and town centres, said: “Nothing says ‘summer’ better than a visit to the seaside, and people in Charnwood can now do that without even leaving the borough.

“Please come down, feel the sand between your toes and show your support for what I’m certain will be a fun-filled three days for all the family.

“Thank you to Love Loughborough BID, I Need a Fun Fair, On The Scene Event Management and our markets team for organising the event. I hope that everyone has a fantastic time.”
