The Spring Festival – a mini community, family-orientated Glasto, much loved by local residents and visitors – has been brought back by popular demand after taking a hiatus last year. It will feature a sound stage, heaps of events and food stalls, plus thousands of visitors.
St Ann’s Tennis is a proud sponsor of this year’s event. As well as free tennis sessions, we will be offering our own special schedule of events on the day. Participants should be aware that there will be thousands of people in the park during the Festival. No parking: access by foot only.
Families, locals, visitors are invited to enjoy free sessions at St Ann’s Tennis 12-2pm. You can book as an individual or a group of up to four people. You can book in advance to guarantee a time, or you can just show up and take any slot available.

Tennis Tournaments: St Ann’s Tennis will host a maxi-mixed doubles tournament across all eight courts in the afternoon, starting at 2pm. Expect big crowds for that one.
