The OnBlackheath Beach, from June 20th

To coincide with the arrival of music festival, OnBlackheath, the Blackheath Conservatoire will be turned into a beach from June 20th. They say:

"The seaside is coming to Blackheath this summer as the grounds of the Grade II Listed Conservatoire will be transformed into an urban sandy beach with a pop up café, street food, beach huts, live music, Punch and Judy, family art and music workshops and lots more!

"Sponsored by partnership OnBlackheath Festival and John Lewis – the British, Victorian inspired installation opens 20th June, National Flip Flop Day, so come prepared and enjoy the 120 square metre stretch, designed for playing, lazing, listening and learning.

"It’s bound to be a weekend hotspot and popular with all ages during the holidays. A full schedule of daily children’s activities will be on offer as well as the OnBlackheath Beach playing host to regular live acoustic evening sessions. The Friday ‘Family Food Night’ and the ‘Chill out Sunday Brunch’ will be events the whole family can enjoy together and as the great British summer can be fairly unpredictable, don’t fret, they have also prepared for rain!"
