Entry to the family fun day will be free and there will be attractions for all ages.
Live music will come from Cadishead Band, Lymm Folk Club and male vocalist Wayne Devlin.
In addition, there will be a variety of dances from Stagecraft and Budgie will conjure up magical entertainment.
Elsewhere on the green there will be a climbing wall run by Challenge 4 Change, Zapparelli circus skills workshops and bird of prey displays from Rixton Raptors.
