Granary Square, which opened in June 2012, is of the biggest public spaces in Europe – a focal point for the regeneration Kings Cross. This weekend it will be the scene of a free, family friendly, two-day festival showcasing the best ice creams available in London and the South East.
More from the Kings Cross site: “The weekend event also celebrates Carlo Gatti who brought ice cream to England in 1851, working from his home in King’s Cross where he sold gelato for one penny, coining the phrase the ‘penny lick’.
The festival is all about getting involved, whether that’s milking one of the cows in the petting farm; helping to make ice cream using the latest in nitrogen technologies or learning how ice cream was first brought to London from Europe.

Hi Laura
I always enjoy your emails and wanted to draw your attention to a great event at The Royal Hospital Chelsea this weekend.
Link below to their website. It is a fantastic family day out – and apart from spectacular cars and bikes, the day includes zorbing and electric Go Karts for children.
