The People's Festival

Featuring The Silhouettes Project, Steamdown, Charisse C, Manik MC, Elisa Imperilee. THE PEOPLE’S FESTIVAL

A festival by the people, for the people

We’re back!! we’re gathering in Gillett Square for a free day of music, art, conversation, learning, resistance and collective joy.

After 5 years of grassroots day parties in Hackney, brought together by @root73\_ , @feltsoundsystem and the Centre for knowledge equity we’ve been building a free community-led festival that centres solidarity over profit, people over extraction, and culture as a tool for liberation.
