The Guernsey Together Celebration this Saturday at Saumarez Park Is hosted by Guernsey North Show & Battle of FlowersThe Leo Club of Guernsey and Lions Club of Guernsey and will see a huge range of stalls and things to do.

This is a new community with the aim of celebrating and thanking the amazing Guernsey community for getting us to Phase 5 so soon!

The organisors have been so inspired by the community spirit, and kindness that people have shown to one another.

This is a FREE event to enter, with just £5 per car for parking.

A full day plus an evening of entertainment, food, games and stalls, with more details being released on this event and on their page https://www.facebook.com/events/2597013123873108/

So far, they have confirmed our headlining act, City Limits, supported by Buffalo Huddleston, Element 6 and more…. They will also have an entertainment arena with a wide variety of entertainment, appealing to all ages! 

They have a great charity and stallholder village, supporting those charities and small businesses impacted by lockdown and where we will be with our GSPCA tombolas raising much needed funds.

The Lions and Leo Clubs are local branches of Lions International, and 100% of their charitable funds are spent within the Bailiwick of Guernsey. 

The North Show is an extremely popular annual event held in Saumarez Park each summer, known famously for its Battle of Flowers. Due to lockdown, the 2020 show has been cancelled, and instead the organisers have partnered with the Lions and Leos to create this new event. 

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “This Saturday pop to Saumarez Park to see our GSPCA stall raising much needed funds at the Guernsey Together Celebration.”

“If you’d like to help on our stall we’d love to hear from you.”

“There will be fireworks in the evening at around 10pm and here is some helpful advice from us at the GSPCA to help you animals http://www.gspca.org.gg/page/fireworks-frighten-animals .”
