After an incredible 50th anniversary in 2025, Plumstead Make Merry returns on Saturday 6th June 2026 — bigger and better than ever!
Since 1975, Plumstead Make Merry has celebrated everything that makes our area special: creativity, culture, and community. Each year, around 10,000 visitors gather on Plumstead Common to enjoy live music, family activities, creative workshops, and over 80 local stalls.
Organised entirely by local volunteers, the festival is proudly not-for-profit, with all sponsorship and fundraising going directly into delivering a free, inclusive event for the community.
We’re inviting local and regional businesses to get involved — to connect with residents, demonstrate community support, and help make 2026 our biggest and best festival yet.
