Cllr Shelley Powell's invitation
Ahead of the events, Cllr Shelley Powell, cabinet member for communities and neighbourhoods, said: "The Knowsley Feelgood Festival and Flower Show are two highlights of Knowsley’s annual events programme and are a fantastic opportunity for residents and visitors to come together and celebrate everything that makes Knowsley such a vibrant and welcoming borough. From the spectacular floral displays and competitions that have made the Flower Show a cherished tradition, to live music, family entertainment, community performances, interactive activities, great food and a packed programme of attractions, Court Hey Park will be bursting with colour, creativity and fun. There really is something for everyone to enjoy, and it is completely free to attend. These events bring people together, encourage people to enjoy our fantastic green spaces and create lasting memories for families and friends. We are proud to host the Feelgood Festival and Flower Show once again, and I would encourage everyone to come along and be part of what promises to be another wonderful weekend for Knowsley."
