Stansted Mountfitchet Jubilee Celebrations

June 2, 2022 @ 21:00 - June 5, 2022 @ 19:00

The Norman village of Stansted Mountfitchet is gearing up to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee by hosting two events at the Recreation Ground on Chapel Hill Road over the bank holiday weekend in June.

 

Head to the Recreation Ground on Thursday June at 9.30pm and listen to the U3A choir in full voice before the village’s Jubilee Beacon is lit at 9.45pm. The beacon will be one of over 2000 to be lit across the British Isles and the Commonwealth for this historic event.

 

Celebrations to honour the Queen’s 70 year-long reign return to the Rec on Saturday, June 4 – when the Parish Council’s Jubilee Community Picnic gets under way from 2pm to 7pm.

 

Expect tea and cakes from the W.I, ice cream stalls, eats from Bear & Eden and the award-winning Brohmon, as well as a bar from the Cork House. Or just bring your own picnic!

 

There’s also live music to enjoy from top local acts like Milla Sweet, Shakila K, Jay Williams. And with a bouncy castle, steam driven traction engine, pop -up play village, face painting and crown making activities, there’s plenty for children to enjoy, too.
