STREETLIFE 2 | RETURN OF THE STREET PARTY 🎊
THIS SATURDAY 23rd August | Market Avenue | 10AM – Late | FREE ENTRY
An imperial Tie Fighter. A full-scale wrestling ring. Cosplay Groups. Life-sized dinosaurs. It might sound like something out of a comic con…but it’s all happening in Ashton this coming bank holiday weekend!
Street Life is a brand new, one-day community festival taking over Market Avenue and surrounding streets for the second time. Free to attend and open to all ages, the event celebrates Ashton with a huge line-up of music, performance, food, film and sci-fi spectacle.
Highlights include:
🦖 Giant mechanical dinosaurs
🤼♂️ Live wrestling shows from Top Rope Wrestling
🎬 Pop-up cinema from Metro Majestic
🚕 Movie props and cars
🕺 Boogie Storm – BGT’s dancing stormtroopers
🎭 Star Wars costume groups
🎶 Live performances from singers, bands and DJs
🎨 Free kids face painting
🛍️ Local traders, street food & cocktails
🤫 Celebrity appearances
At the centre of it all is an Imperial Tie Fighter, making its first-ever appearance at a community event, previously exclusive to comic cons and exhibitions.
It’s a celebration of creativity, local talent and pure imagination and a bold reminder of what Ashton town centre can be.
No tickets. No entry fee. Just good people, great energy, and a day to remember.
