Brixton Families Discover Markets, Parks, Workshops This July
Brixton families can choose from markets, parks and workshops this July.
How we reported this

Brixton parents booked sessions at two local venues for the coming fortnight after schools broke up on 17 July.
Summer schedules fill quickly when global news keeps households closer to home, and organisers report higher demand for weekday slots in south London districts than in previous years.
Markets and squares
Brixton Village on Atlantic Road runs daily craft tables for children aged five to twelve between 11am and 3pm, while Windrush Square hosts free storytelling circles each Saturday morning led by Lambeth libraries staff. Both sites sit within a ten-minute walk of Brixton Underground station.
Attendance at last summer’s equivalent market sessions reached 1,200 children across four weekends, according to Lambeth council figures released in May.
Prices and next steps
Entry to the village workshops costs £3 per child, with materials included, and advance tickets sell out by Wednesday each week. Families should check the Lambeth council website on Monday mornings for remaining places and bring their own reusable water bottles to the square events.
