Record turnout for Town Day 2026
By Kelly Lewis
Victoria Park was filled with the sound of music, laughter, and community spirit on Saturday 12th September, as thousands of people came together for the biggest Haywards Heath Town Day yet.
The annual celebration brought the town together for a full day of free entertainment and activities, with more than 100 stalls filling the park. Local businesses, charities, community organisations, and groups came together alongside food and drink vendors, giving visitors plenty to see, do, eat, and discover throughout the day. A key part of Town Day was the opportunity to showcase the wealth of local talent within Haywards Heath, with a packed programme of performances from community groups taking place throughout the afternoon. Their performances provided a wonderful showcase of the talent, creativity and enthusiasm found within the local community.
There was also plenty of choice when it came to food and drink, with vendors serving a wide range of dishes and refreshments throughout the day. From street food and sweet treats to coffee and drinks at the bar, visitors could grab something to eat and make a day of their visit to Victoria Park. Town Day also provided an opportunity to support Town Mayor Cllr Duncan Pascoe’s chosen charity for his second term of office, Kangaroos Mid Sussex. Visitors were able to make donations to Kangaroos throughout the day, with donation buckets positioned at the Town Council gazebos. Kangaroos also hosted a Quiet Area, providing a calm space for anyone who needed a break from the busy event.
