Kew Green

Kew Green is popular for picnics, exercise and of course the cricket. St Anne's Church was built in 1714 and the graveyard includes the tombs of Thomas Gainsborough and Zohan Zoffany.

Kew Village Market

Held on the first Sunday of each month (except January), the village comes alive with over 45 stalls and music.

Kew Midsummer Fete

Always a fabulous family day out, the 2026 Kew Midsummer Fete was said by many to be the best yet.

Having run the Fete for 15 years and raised £260,000 for local charities, the committee are now passing the reigns to a new team. Would you like to get involved?

Kew Village

Kew has a real village feel with lovely shops and restaurants

The Thames

The river is always beautiful and changes through the tides and seasons. The towpath can be busy with joggers, cyclists and dog walkers and of course there is river traffic too - rowers, kayaks and paddleboards add to the scenery.

Community Groups

Kew has numerous thriving community groups - many listed on our Community Groups page - get involved!

Kew Pond

Kew Pond has lots of birdlife and often a family of swans.  Local volunteers top it up once a month, using a tunnel from the Thames at high tide.

Kew Gardens

Kew Gardens is our best known attraction.

The National Archives

The National Archives is open to visitors and offers a wide range of exhibitions, talks and children's activities.  It also has a cafe and pretty gardens.

Kew Sparkle

For one night only, on the first Friday in December, local businesses, societies and the people of Kew come together to transform Kew Village into a vibrant festive wonderland. A local charity is chosen as the beneficiary each year - in 2023 £3000 was raised for the Cocoon Care.
