One hundred years of Music
Our beloved bandstand to be given a centenary makeover
Exciting news for Broomfield Park!
This year marks the centenary of our iconic bandstand, first built in 1926 – and there is no better time to invest in its future.
Work to restore the bandstand will be starting soon, supported by funding from the Council's 'Pride of Enfield' initiative.
From hosting live music like Broomfield Blues to playing a central role in events such as the Palmers Green Festival, it remains a vital hub for music, culture and community.
The renovation is planned to be completed in time for this year’s Broomfield Blues – celebrating 100 years of the bandstand in style.

Friends of Broomfield Park were delighted to take part in The Big Draw Festival 2026, joining thousands of organisations around the world celebrating the joy, creativity and accessibility of drawing. This year’s theme, “Make a Mark”, invited everyone to explore drawing as a way of seeing, thinking and connecting — not just creating a finished picture. The event was a great success, with lots of people turning up to unleash their creativity and enjoy trying something new. CLICK TO READ MORE AND SEE PHOTOS AND VIDEO OF THE EVENT
