birthday party celebrations at Smithfield

One of the most historic corners of the City of London is holding a birthday party this August Bank Holiday – and everyone is invited! Its the time you should go to Smithfield to enjoy spectacular party celebrations complete with parades, birthday cake, and roller disco.

For centuries Smithfield has been an indispensable part of London life.  Farmers brought their cows, sheep, geese and other animals for sale here, and later it became the center of general meat trading. As London became more and more congested, it was difficult to maintain an open space for the fair. The Victorians decided to build a grand covered market complete with dragons on the roof!

There is something for everyone, from children to adults.  Street games, parades, giant puppets, fairground rides, birthday cake, cooking demonstrations, pop up markets, music, and dance. There is also a roller disco for anyone prepared to put on their skates and dance.
