Fest Norwood

Fest Norwood 2019

Friday 2nd – Sunday 11th August
Various Locations in West Norwood

Last year SLT created and hosted the first Fest Norwood; an arts festival based in the West Norwood for the local community and surrounding areas. The Festival staged 75 events, 62 of which were free, and the response to the festival was overwhelmingly positive. SLT’s Fire Station and its theatre will be at the heart again of this open-access 10 day multi-arts festival, with satellite events taking place all across West Norwood. This year’s theme is ‘Renaissance’.

  Mardi Gras

Meltdown Mardi Gras

Sunday 4th August
Southbank Centre

Funk and soul flood the riverside stage at a carnival-style party. Meltdown Mardi Gras features a battalion of brass, an outdoor procession, lindy hopping, break-dancing and a whole heap of disco classics. Kickstart the day with a procession of style as our resident youth organisation Kinetika Bloco head down to the Riverside Terrace. Dat Brass, a high octane 11-piece band take to our summer stage for a set, while lindy hopping, break-dancing troupe Swing Patrol battle it out with our Southbank Centre cloakroom dancers. Then it’s your turn to take centre stage – learn some moves at a swing dance workshop and then show everyone what you can do in a dance-off.
