Looking for plans for the final bank holiday weekend of the summer?

There’s the dog show, there’ll be a plant sale hosted by local green fingered collective Hackney Community Gardeners, a vintage market, Plus there’s plenty of outdoor games for grown ups and kids. Think coconut shy, GIANT Jenga, rounders and more. For the enlightened, you can get all zen with yoga in the park hosted by Matt Stretch.

Food is being supplied by Biff's Jack Shack, the patate, Salty Loins, Lele's, Hanoi Cà Phê – Street Food & Drink, Born & Raised, Sorbitium Ices.​ Vegans and vegetarians catered for.
