About Us

Saturday 7th June 2025

Welcome to the official website for Rainford’s Picnic in Park. An annual family music festival in the heart of Rainford Village.

Our festival aims to provide a relaxed, fun-filled day in a safe environment. In addition to the fantastic music line-up, you will find children’s activities, a range of stalls and various food outlets. No alcohol is sold on-site but you are welcome to bring your own along with your own food and snacks. Food can also be purchased on the day from various outlets.
(No glass please).

In 2024 Rainford’s Picnic in the park became a CIC. Monies raised at Saturday’s event will continue to benefit local clubs including Rainford Rangers, Rainford Cricket Club, Rainford Tennis Club and 1st Rainford Boys’ Brigade and Girls’ Association. Please note that Friday night at picnic in the park is a separate event operated by ukevents4u Ltd and is not a fundraiser nor does it operate as part of Rainford’s picnic in the park CIC. Terms and conditions differ on Friday@picnic.
