Spot On, Stretford | Summer Street Party | Saturday 18th July 2026
Before The Hundred and One Dalmatians became a beloved classic, its creator, Dodie Smith, called Stretford home. She lived with her grandparents at 609 Stretford Road until 1910, where her childhood experiences helped inspire her storytelling.
This summer, we're celebrating our hometown connection with a spot-tacular street party packed with entertainment, face painting, family fun and a special screening of the classic film at The Northern Light Cinema. And GRUB Stretford will be serving a delicious variety of food and bringing the nostalgia with some jazz on the decks. Everyone's invited - especially your four-legged friends.
It kicks off at 12pm on Sir Tony Lloyd Square and King Street, wrapping up at 8pm - but you're welcome to stick around!
