Set in Heaton Park the largest municipal park in Britain the event will be spread out to allow families to have enough space to ensure a special day out. For families that haven’t been to Geronimo before we recommend you arrive early as there is enough FREE entertainment for you to stay all day.

Unlike any other family event in Britain, the festival has something for all members of the family to enjoy- whatever their age, although the focus is for 2-12-year-olds. There will be 3 fabulous showground arenas, a hive of entertainment throughout the festival with timetabled events including jousting tournaments, motorcycle stunt displays, camel racing and more.
The most popular zone of the festival is the main stage where you can see children’s Tv royalty Sam & Mark take to the stage. You could find yourself singing on stage with a live rock band ROCKAKOKE or joining in with a giant Frozen sing-along. No festival would be complete without music, for the parents we are delighted to announce a great Manchester line up, Craig Charles, a celebration of all things funky! Mr Scruff and Bez from the Happy Mondays will be doing DJ sets alongside Clint Boon. Bands like The Rockin Rhinos, Johnny and the Raindrops will be live all weekend and Big Fish Little Fish for the post-rave generation.
