A huge thank you for today. Great to see you Kerry and Ann. We were really pleased with our location and our takings. The footfall was amazing, down to the fantastic advertising I saw leading up to it. The added extras like entertainment and refreshments were great for bringing people in. It was a fabulous, warm, enjoyable day.

Fantastic Festival Finale

We had a hugely successful campaign stall at the festival. Our aim was to raise awareness about deep-sea mining and the devastating effects to deep-sea marine life and the impact in the environment as a whole.

We encouraged families to paint a pebble with an octopus which will be sent to Greenpeace HQ and used to form a large collage along with pebbles from other stalls.

Walkley Festival goers were more than happy to engage, painting almost 100 pebbles on the day with lots of people signing up to our petition.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to attend again this year and we hope very much to see you all again next year.

Very much enjoyed and all the best.

I had the pleasure of attending Walkley Festival and must say, it was one of the best events I have ever been to! The organisers did an amazing job in making sure everything was well organised and enjoyable for everyone. I was extremely happy with how the event turned out and I only wish we could have more of these in the future. Keep up the great work, Walkley Festival Team!

The Walkley Festival Finale at Ruskin Park is an annual Walkley highlight and today's event was fantastic. Big community events like this require a lot of effort, time and goodwill from volunteers, local community groups and businesses. Thank you to the festival organisers and to everyone involved in making the event happen.
