The Tea Pavilion, a familiar feature of Cassiobury Park for generations and currently operated by Café in the Park, is marking a special milestone this November. To celebrate its centenary, residents and visitors are invited to share their photographs and memories, helping to capture its place in Watford’s history.
Celebrations are scheduled for Saturday 14 November. Elected Mayor of Watford, Peter Taylor, will attend for a special cake-cutting ceremony during the first half of the event, with cake available on a first come, first served basis. Live music from the 1920s to the present day will be featured from 11am to 1pm, while Cassiobury parkrun will host a special fancy-dress run starting at 9am.
A collection of photographs and images offering a glimpse into the Tea Pavilion’s 100-year history and its place in Cassiobury Park is planned to be on display from the week commencing 9 November until 1 December. Additionally, a history talk with Friends of Cassiobury Park is scheduled for Tuesday 17 November.
“"The Tea Pavilion is a special part of Cassiobury Park and has been a place for people to meet, relax and make memories for generations. Reaching 100 years is a wonderful milestone, and it’s a great opportunity to celebrate its place in Watford’s history."
“"I’d encourage residents to share their photographs and memories of the pavilion, helping us build a picture of the people and moments that have made it such a cherished part of our town."
Residents with photographs or memories of the Tea Pavilion are encouraged to get involved and help celebrate its 100-year history.
