Be Part of Suburban Legends
Romford Market has stood at the heart of Havering for centuries, a place of trade, spectacle, community, and unforgettable characters. Market Town is gathering the legends, myths, and memories that the market has inspired across generations and bringing them to life in a spectacular public celebration this August Bank Holiday.
We are looking for 100 residents to be part of Suburban Legends, a participatory parade that will animate Romford Market and its surrounding streets. No experience needed. Just enthusiasm, a love of Romford and a willingness to show up and take part.
What's involved:
· You will be part of one of 25 stories brought to life through costume, movement, and performance.
· You will receive a costume co-created by our community costume team and take part in a rehearsal before the big day.
Rehearsal: 22 August 2026
Parade: 29 August 2026
Please note attendance at both the rehearsal and the parade is required to participate.
What skills do I need?
No experience needed. Just enthusiasm, a love of Romford and a willingness to show up and take part.
