Costa Del Croydon returns to Croydon town centre for Summer 2025

Get ready for the ultimate urban summer escape as Costa Del Croydon makes a return to Centrale & Whitgift from 1st to 31st August 2025.

After a hugely successful inaugural run last year that drew over 30,000 visitors, this vibrant beach-themed event is back with exciting new features, activities, and plenty of sunshine vibes right in the heart of Croydon.

Taking over Centrale’s multi-storey rooftop, Costa Del Croydon will bring sun, sand, and seaside fun to Croydon town centre – perfect for families, friends, and colleagues looking for a unique day out.

The 2025 edition offers all the favourites from last year, including splash zones, mini go-karts, trampolines, and classic pier-side games like hook-a-duck. Plus, there’s a jam-packed programme of daily activities ranging from dance workshops to bingo, catering to visitors of all ages.

New for 2025 is a dedicated ‘quiet space’ – a calm retreat for those who want to relax away from the lively crowds but still soak up the atmosphere. Families with little ones will also enjoy a brand-new toddler paddling zone, making this year’s event even more family-friendly.

Costa Del Croydon will also serve up an array of food and drink vendors, with new stalls set to be announced soon. Expect everything from indulgent seaside treats to diverse international flavours, ensuring there’s something to satisfy every palate.

True to its community roots, the event will host Community Days every Tuesday, organised with Croydon Voluntary Action (CVA). Local groups will have the chance to showcase their talents through performances and activities, reflecting the vibrant diversity of Croydon and bringing the community together in celebration.

Costa Del Croydon will run 7 days a week, 1st to 31st August 2025, with two daily sessions to choose from:

  • Morning/Afternoon: 11:30am – 3:00pm
  • Late Afternoon/Evening: 3:30pm – 7:00pm

Many activities are free, and free tickets are available to book weekly online. Walk-up visitors are also welcome, subject to availability.

In typical British summer fashion, if the weather turns, key activities will move indoors to a dedicated pop-up space within Centrale, ensuring the party never stops regardless of rain or shine.
