Love Southwark Summer 2026

 

Love Southwark Summer 2026 is a borough-wide campaign to make sure every resident knows about the free and low-cost activities on their doorstep this summer — from festivals and parks to sport, libraries and youth programmes across all 10 Southwark neighbourhoods. It is designed to drive participation, celebrate local communities, and put the Love Southwark brand front and centre everywhere in the borough, not just in the most visible areas. The campaign runs from July to the end of August, delivered through Southwark Life (every door in the borough), social media, outdoor advertising, a media partnership with Southwark News, local influencer content, and on-the-ground engagement at key events.
