The Big Park Hangout is a free event designed especially for 11–17-year-olds living and studying in Milton Keynes. It promises an exciting mix of activities, entertainment, and opportunities for young people to connect with their community.

Teenagers will have the chance to explore what Milton Keynes has to offer, from arts and culture to sports, health, wellbeing, and safety services.

Set in a safe and welcoming outdoor space, the event will feature creative experiences, live performances, and plenty of hands-on fun.

Attendees can enjoy chillout zones, street food, and discover career pathways while meeting local organisations that support young people, including youth services and community groups.

Whether you're looking to try something new, meet others, or just enjoy a great day out, The Big Park Hangout is the place to be.

No booking is required for this event, we look forward to seeing you there!
