Well that's it! The live part of Southend City Jam is over for another year, and we hope you enjoyed the festival as much as we did!
The temporary walls will be in place for the next two weeks (until 13th September 2026) so there's still plenty of time to see everything if you couldn't make it to the festival.
200+ artists painting live across the city centre and seafront
