Templars Square turns 60!
This event has now ended.
Please note: This event took place on 10th May 2025.
We’re turning 60 – and you’re invited to the party!
This May, we’re celebrating 60 years of Templars Square being at the heart of the community, and we’d love you to join us.
Come along and be part of the anniversary celebrations, as we look back on six decades of local history.
Local historian Maurice East will be hosting guided walking tours around the area, offering a chance to share your own memories of Templars Square, formerly known as Cowley Centre, through the years.
The day will be packed with fun for all ages, shoppers can step into the giant globe for a chance to win prizes, enjoy a lively Elton John tribute act performing from a moving white piano and take part in facepainting and enjoy a birthday cake. On display we’ll have three Morris Princess cars and special appearances from Templeton, our larger-than-life mascot.
When: Saturday 10th May (Plus walking tours and car display on Sunday 11th May, 12pm – 4pm)
Time: 11am – 4pm
We look forward to celebrating this special day with people from across the local community.
