The festival is the largest free to attend community event held annually in Surbiton for the past thirty years (bar during covid).

"It is a vibrant celebration of community spirit, creativity, and local culture with an array of free activities catering to all ages," said Robert Dobbie, Chairman of the Surbiton Festival Committee.

There'll be live music throughout the day on two stages in Claremont Gardens and St Andrews Square with performances that showcase a range of local talent.

There will also be a bustling street market down Victoria Road and St Andrews Road filled with artisan crafts, delectable food and beer stalls, as well as a children centric area full of free activities, including a teddy bear's picnic, face painting, Punch and Judy and magic shows, and fayre type stalls.

On Surbiton Station forecourt, the Royal British Legion band will perform  as well as a Jive Group, classic cars and more.

Robert Dobbie said: "The festival really captures the essence of Surbiton's electric and inclusive nature and is a great day out organised by a small committee of local businesses and volunteers, much to the delight year on year of the thousands that attend."

The festival parade will begin at midday on St Andrews Road.
