On Sunday 13th July 2025 we are celebrating 90 years of the Rockingham Estate and we want to bring everyone together for a day of fun and good health with RockiFest from 1 - 7pm. There will be live music, food, shows, games, information and much more. Tell your neighbours!
If you would like to get involved - share ideas or volunteer to help out - please email: communityrockingham@gmail.com

The day will begin with South London Samba Band and the Elephant Queen leading a colourful procession around the estate arriving at the main stage on Rockingham Street for 1pm for the start of the festival. Throughout the day there will be an eclectic mix of live music from ska to folk to reggae and West African hosted by MC Angel and DJ Snuff.
In the workshop space by the community centre there will be Kendo and Taekwon-Do demonstrations, a zumba class, followed by our Keepie Uppie Competition at 3:30pm and a Breakdancing Competition from 4pm.
The wellbeing space is a place to chill with a massage, join a yoga session and help to weave a willow elephant. This is where you’ll find information about the estates gardens and allotments, and receive help from various organisations.
In the kids space we are bringing a circus to the estate with acrobatics, an aerial show and even a chance to try it out yourself! There will also be a circus inspired toddler dance class, a caperoira workshop, circus skills workshop, side shows and games, and space hopper races (time trials) too! We’ll enjoy reggae nursery rhymes from a bubble blowing bicycle powered sound system, arts and crafts, face painting as well as a bouncy castle. Bring your bike as there will be a chance to register it on the national bike registry as well as Dr. Bike who can make minor repairs.
Inside the community centre you can enjoy finding out about the rich history of the area with our heritage exhibition along with a tearoom where you can relax and take it all in.
Save the date and tell your friends!!
