Stoke Fest 2008
Enjoy Stoke Fest 2008 in Clissold Park this June!!!!
Stoke Fest will be back for 2008 bringing Clissold Park to life!
In 2008 Stoke Fest hopes to attract between 20,000 and 30,000 festival goers making it one of the biggest free festivals in London.
Events will be kicked off with a procession down Stoke Newington Church Street led by Barking Bateria samba band. The six stages at the festival will be hosted by Hackney Globetrotter (Russ Jones), and Global Local (Chris Tofu from Continental Drifts), Raison d'etre, Folk Stage with Magpie's Nest, and English Folk Dance and Song Society, Solution Sound and Gladdy Wax, Sunstone Community Stage (a special outreach project with Afro-Reggae and Taru Brazil working with five local primary schools and at-risk youth) and Core Arts.
The line up for this year's event is yet to be announced but if last year is anything to go by then visitors can expect DJs galore, performances from some of the hottest bands around, world music, circus performers, plays, local bands and artists with plenty of arts and crafts to keep the little people happy.
The event is happening on Sunday June 8th from 12pm to 8pm.
