Saturday 1 March 2025
What is Southend City Day?
Southend High Street comes alive for a vibrant celebration of our city’s heritage, culture, and community spirit, celebrating one of the UK’s newest cities.
What is planned for the day?
The event will feature live performances, walkabout entertainment, community activities, and a tempting array of food concessions. From music and dance to delicious food and creative displays, there’s something for everyone to enjoy as we come together to celebrate all that makes Southend special.
Check out the City Stage at the top of the high street, where you can catch amazing performances from local acts and DJs throughout the day and evening. Don’t miss the Southend City Song-Writers Stage at Royal Square and enjoy performances from talented local songwriters showcasing their original music. Both the Royals Shopping Centre and The Victoria Centre will host live performances and information stalls throughout the day.
Plan your next day out and travel by train.
