Our ever popular fete and dog show will be held on Peckham Rye Common on Saturday 5th September 2026 from 12-5pm. It takes a lot of work to run the fete and we especially need volunteers to run the coconut shy and children’s races. Please contact us on peckhamryepark@gmail.com if you can give us an hour or two of your time.
Paws and Pause took over running the wonderful fete and dog show last year. What a triumph it was - delighted they are returning for another go. A busy crowd enjoyed all the fun of the dog show, sack races, coconut shy, Punch and Judy, the Friends-run stands and stalls such as the Pimms, wine and beer stand, the tea and cakes tent, the book and plant stalls, along with a variety of other food stands and stalls
The dog show profits are given to charity. All other profits from last year’s fete were spent on clearing the central rose beds on the Sexby Garden which had become seriously overgrown with many of the roses needing to be replaced.
