Celebrate National Play Day with Vibrant Communities
Children and families are invited to a free activity event in Kilmarnock to mark National Play Day.
Organised by East Ayrshire Vibrant Communities, the ‘Play Day’ will take place in the Kay Park on Wednesday 3 August and will offer a variety of fun-filled activities, within six unique ‘play zones’, for children to celebrate their right to play.

Kids can choose from: The Fun Zone; The Messy Zone; The Creative Zone; The Physical Zone; The Free Play Zone and The Adventure Zone, with plenty of activities to keep them occupied.
From face painting and giant inflatables to quad bikes, a climbing wall and even canoes, there will be something for everyone!
The event will run from 11am – 3pm. Why not bring a picnic and make a day of it!

So much to play for…
It’s well known that play is essential for a child’s mental development, and we believe every child has the right to play, grow and learn safely.
This is why events like Play Day are so important.
