The east London festival All Points East has announced its annual In The Neighbourhood programme for 2026, the free festival bringing sports activities, live music, theatre, food and drink together across four days.
Reggae and dub collective Trojan Sound System and mixmaster DJ Yoda will perform, while the creative hub Cafe 1001 will host a stage takeover. Rich Mix, BBC Asian Network’s DJ Kizzi and Grand Union Orchestra will also be there from 24-27 August.
Free fitness sessions will be orchestrated by House of Voga, Move Studio London, Be Well leisure services run by Tower Hamlets Council and more, while audiences can participate in free football sessions hosted by West Ham FC Foundation.
Live theatre shows will also be performed by Half Moon Presents, a small-scale young people’s venue and touring company, while across the four days attendees can also experience art workshops, film screenings, open mic poetry sessions and more.
Minara Khatun, cabinet member for leisure, culture and tourism, said: “We’re delighted to welcome In the Neighbourhood back to our award-winning Victoria Park this summer. This free festival is a fantastic opportunity for residents and visitors to come together, soak up the sunshine, and experience the incredible diversity, creativity and community spirit highlighted by the Love Tower Hamlets campaign.
With something for everyone, it’s the perfect day out for families, friends, and fun-loving people of all ages. Join us as thousands come together to celebrate the energy, culture, and community spirit that make our borough one of the most vibrant in the UK.”
This year’s All Points East will welcome Jorja Smith and Tems (21 August), Lorde (22 August), and a two-day headline show from Tyler, The Creator’s two-day headline slot (28 August-29 August) at Victoria Park.
In The Neighbourhood takes place 24-27 August at Victoria Park, London.
