Events & Meetings

NeFRA Community Meetings

New Ferry Residents Association (NeFRA) consists of a group of local residents who volunteer their time to work on behalf of the New Ferry community.

We have a committee which meets informally when required to pursue a number of projects in agreement with local residents and businesses.

When necessary, we hold public meetings where YOU can come along to hear our latest plans and ideas, put forward your own ideas to improve New Ferry.

Although NeFRA is a non-political organisation, our local councillors also come along to most of our meetings where you can meet them face to face and raise any concerns you might have. We welcome your support and input for these meetings.

The date and time of our next meeting will be announced here when known.

THE BIG NEW FERRY FESTIVAL, 28-30 AUGUST 2021

It's back! We're taking the plunge and giving it a go despite the lingering effects of Covid. The New Ferry Festival will take place (fully outdoors!) on Saturday 28th, Sunday 29th, and Bank Holiday Monday 30th August 2021 in both the Bebington Road precinct and in New Ferry Park.

Top attractions include two WW2 aircraft, a Mark 9 Spitfire and the German equivalent, a very rare Me109-E4 which is a replica of the fighter aircraft flown by the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain. The aircraft will be accompanied by teams of WW2 re-enactors portraying RAF, British Airborne and the Cheshire Home Guard. Other displays will include modern British Army and a collection of military vehicles. A brilliant learning experience for the kids (and adults too!).

There will also be vintage buses from the Wirral Transport Museum, one of which will give guided tours of historic Port Sunlight Village.
A large funfair will be on New Ferry Park, along with other attractions to be announced.

New Ferry precinct will be boosted with a variety of stalls, with further attractions and displays on the former explosion site (before it is redeveloped next year). Stall-holders are invited but must book in advance by emailing newferrymarkets@gmail.com to request a booking form. Fees per 3x3m pitch are £15 per day, £25 for 2 days, £35 for 3 days. (For local registered charities and New Ferry/Port Sunlight based businesses, fee is waived at the discretion of the organisers). No sales of alcohol or cooked burgers/hot dogs/doughnuts allowed - sorry - these are already catered for by the existing shops. Some types of stalls e.g. body cosmetics, cakes and face painters will be limited to no more than 2 on a first-come-first-served basis. All stallholders must bring their own table/gazebo and have PLI insurance cover. Sellers who bring their own prepared food items must have relevant food hygiene certification. No electricity points available.

With its major attractions and the importance of the event in New Ferry (the town of the major explosion in 2017), the event is likely to be featured in local newspapers, radio and television.
