Peace in the Park festival

The organisers have out together what they hope will be a fun filled action day for all the family from 1pm to 5pm. Mayor Audrey Wales will give a warm Ballymena welcome to all attending.

There will be live music on stage provided by ‘The Wise Guys’. Compere and musician Martin McManus will be supporting the band and adding to the festival atmosphere will be music from the CWA Brass Band.

The forward thinking North Ballymena Community Cluster group are well ahead of plans for the new Mid and East Antrim Council area by engaging the band from Larne, the compere from Ballymena and the brass band from Carrickfergus!

A large bouncy castle, giant slide, rodeo bull and assault course will complement the already fantastic play area in the People’s Park.

There will be a variety of food available to purchase on the day.

Thanks to Philip McBurney from McBurney’s Transport for the use of his trailer for our stage and to our funders, Ballymena Borough Council’s Community Festival Fund and the NIHE Shared Communities Programme. Thanks also to Des Ballantine (Ballymena Borough Council) for the use of such a beautiful and scenic park.
