The Big Malarkey Festival 2023 / Film by Pinzel Productions

So we’ve packed away the bunting for another year - we had the best of times entertaining children from schools across Hull and welcoming thousands of friendly-faced families through the gates of Malarkey Park! Big thanks to all our amazing artists, authors, illustrators, performers, poets, writers, musicians, makers, dancers and dreamers! And, of course thanks to all the children, families, teachers, staff and volunteers who joined in and made it such a fabulous few days for everyone.

The Big Malarkey Festival returns to East Park from Monday 17 June - Sunday 23 June 2024 with a seventh helping of family fun to celebrate children’s books and stories. We hope to see you next year for another #BigMalarkey!
