Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Throw your hat in the ring to make the Harringay Festival go with a swing
With a following wind, it looks like we're going to be able to build a fantastic Harringay Street Festival this September 20th. I've been insisting that as well as support from the Council and traders, a significant element should be by and of "we the people". It'll be as great as we make it.
So if you'd like to join the team, let us know. Broadly at this stage the options are to offer help:
- in the months running up to the festival in helping to get things organised.
- on the day.
- in staging or using your contacts/know-how to arrange an event/interesting stall/street act on the day.
- by arranging a satellite event on the 18th or 19th. (Events organised under the banner of the festival probably by local groups Adam Coffman has already spoken to the schools, Railway Fields and the. Salisbury who are all interested in putting on some events/entertainment. We've also got various artists/art collectives, local historians and a host of other local groups and talent.)
So, roll-up, roll-up Harringay, get your hat in the ring.

This all sounds wonderful, I'm really looking forward to it and very happy to help out in the run-up and on the day in whatever way I can.
I'm a regular HoL reader though I don't often post, and I live down on Burgoyne Rd.

Hi
The Kurdish Community Centre in Portland Gardens would be good people to involve. They do loads of work with the local community and are old hands at putting on festivals

Hi Hugh, we would like to take part in the Festival in some way, perhaps having a pie & mash stall in the festival. If I can help with organising anything or helping generally I would love to assist. I think its great we have at last a Harringay Festival, well done to all concerned.
Could you please let me know how I can apply for a stall.
Best regards,
Simon Walters. The Garden Ladder.

Hi Liz
I have written a new comedy/cabaret show called An Excoriating Evening of Quantitive Easing if that is of any interest to anybody... It would have to be updated at the time to keep it topical ... naturally

That's great. Thanks Simon. I think application arrangements for stalls will come a little down the line.

I would like run a stall at the festival and know of other potential stall holders. I would be happy to help organise the stalls and stall holders. I also manage a North African Band and know of lots of African musicians if there is a need for live music.
