Surrey Day - How to get involved

It’s official! Saturday May 4th is the county’s first ever Surrey Day and we want you to be part of it.

Visit Surrey members are already planning exciting events to showcase their venues to visitors and we are working in partnership with Surrey Life magazine and BBC Surrey to shout about it.

So far, ideas from our members include a street party at Silent Pool; behind the scenes tours of historic properties; a celebratory barbecue; a commemorative walk through the Surrey Hills; and many more.

For example, Visit Surrey member, the National Trust’s Clandon Park will be giving free entry to Surrey residents and the chance to meet the team behind this historic building’s restoration; award-winning Albury Vineyard will be joining its food and drink neighbours at Silent Pool to host a street party; and new member Stanhill Court in Horley is planning a barbecue on its terrace.

You can host an event on Saturday May 4th itself, throughout the Bank Holiday Weekend or in the week running up to Surrey Day – so let's all get creative and put our wonderful county in the spotlight!
