Children's funfair on Goose green.

[first mate]

Is this a popular event? If great demand for this sort of event on such a small space then so be it. It is just with Peckham Common so very close by just wondering why this is considered a preferable venue for this kind of thing?

I don't really see the issue.  It's taking  up a small part of Goose Green.  I was able to happily eat my lunch there today witthout the fair impinging on my space or enjoyment.

I presume they have chosen that location as it is near the playground, so parents with young children often go there at the weekend.

Agreed. It's massively over-priced, but it keeps my boy really happy for a few pounds and isn't causing any harm, so why not?

This kidz fun fair is also at peckham rye park earlier in the year, I have taken my children to both for the last couple of years and they like many other local children really enjoy.

It's family run by a lovely couple and I look forward to attending future fairs plus the doughnuts were delicious!

But of a killjoy OP.

I really miss Carters Steam Fair that was on the Rye or Belair
