Host your own mini festival at home in Morecambe

This year, even though the Make My Day festival of creativity on Morecambe’s beautiful promenade can’t take place - organisers want people to join them on Sunday, August 9, 1pm-3pm by hosting their own mini festival at home.

Head over to www.makemyday.org.uk/make-your-own to discover a host of fun, simple and inventive making activities complete with easy to follow instructions and step-by-step videos.

Gather your materials (mostly from your recycling bins) and get ready to make - take your pick from the activities sent out - or get stuck in, and make them all.

Tune in to the specially commissioned Make My Day celebration online radio shows - www.mixcloud.com/RadioNewPlanetCity - and fill your window, yard or garden with all your creations and have fun.

Share photographs of your mini home festivals on social media - #mmdmorecambe and they will be added to the online gallery map.

If you’re in Morecambe on the day - look out for walk-about performers, InnerState Theatre and community poet, Kriss Foster - who will be performing in the West End and on Sandylands Promenade during the afternoon.

Festival organiser Beki Melrose, said: “We’ve worked hard to make sure that creativity and community spirit can carry on in these uncertain times. We hope that people, homes and streets from all around the world will join in to widen the boundaries and possibilities of what our festival can be.”
