Bluestone Foundation Community Events
Since 2024 the Blue Lagoon Water Park has been open to the local community as part of a series of evening events raising funds for charities, non-profit organisations and constituted groups in Pembrokeshire.
Each event is hosted by a local charitable organisation and local residents will be able to buy tickets. All of the proceeds are directed into the community; 75 % of funds through the local charity and 25% through the Bluestone Foundation. Each event means up to 600 members of the local community can enjoy the water park facilities while raising money directly for local good causes.
Any constituted non-profit distributing organisation based in Pembrokeshire interested in participating in future events can apply to become the host and recipient of funds. Further details of the process to submit an Expression of Interest will be published here when the next round opens.
Future opportunities to submit an EOI for consideration as a Community Event Host organisation will be shared here, with PAVS Members & through our Mailing Lists.
Book your Blue Lagoon Tickets & help raise funds for these community groups – dates and confirmed hosts for 2026 will be shared here soon!
