Let the Play Begin at Northumberland Place!

We’re gearing up for the exciting launch of Westminster’s newest Play Street at Northumberland Place, W2 5BS.

Join us on Monday 4 August 2025, from 5–7pm for the official launch event. It will be a free, fun-filled evening where the street will be transformed into a safe, car-free space for children to play and neighbours to connect.

This is the first of three new Play Streets being introduced across Westminster as part of a resident-led initiative supported by Westminster City Council and partners. It’s all about creating safer, more Active Streets for our communities to enjoy.

What is a Play Street?

If you don’t already know, Play Streets are temporary, resident-organised closures that turn streets into places for play, community and creativity—making neighbourhoods healthier, safer, and more social for everyone.

Get ready to play and connect!

Here’s what you can expect when you join us:
  • Space to scoot, cycle, draw and play
  • Games, chalk art, and community fun
  • A chance to meet neighbours and celebrate the space together

Come along, bring your family, and experience how a local street can become a shared space full of colour, energy and connection.

More Play Streets Coming Soon

Northumberland Place is just the beginning! Keep an eye on our website and socials for updates on when the other Play Streets are launching – we’ve got another two in the pipeline!

Bring Play Streets To Your Neighbourhood!
