EAST FINCHLEY FESTIVAL 2022
EAST FINCHLEY FESTIVAL / 2022 Welcome! Now in its 48th year, this year’s festival builds on the success of last year’s Late Summer Social. This year’s attractions and entertainment include: • Twenty one acts across two stages showcasing local talent, with bands and musicians, choirs, dancers and much more. See p11 for the rundown. • NEW for 2022: Laser tag in the woods. Recommended age 7+. See p14 for booking details. • A delicious selection of hot and cold food to suit a variety of tastes. Ranging from hog roast to Asian-inspired vegan creations to fried ice-cream (yes, really), we have something for everyone. • The bar area (next to the main stage) features local microbrewery Muswell Hillbilly Brewers, who will have a superb selection of locally brewed beers. Local wine aficionados Bottles ‘n’ Jars will be selling wine by the glass or by the bag, as well as coffee, and there’ll be a selection of speciality gins, courtesy Artisan Drinks.
So please come down to Cherry Tree Wood with your family, friends and neighbours to enjoy the best of what East Finchley has to offer.
Who, how and what of the festival? The festival is organised by East Finchley Festival CIC, a non-profit community interest company. The entire event is run by volunteers and relies heavily on support and sponsorship from local businesses and the wider community. Without this collective generosity, the festival would not happen. If you would like to be involved with next year’s festival, we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch at volunteers@eastfinchleyfestival.org or visit eastfinchleyfestival.org/get-involved If you would like to make a donation to help keep our festival FREE, please use the QR code below.
