All Points East’s IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD returns for a second year with an four-day programme of FREE activities and entertainment in London's Victoria Park. In collaboration with Tower Hamlets Council, the local community and local organisations, the free programme takes place between All POints East's two weekends of music.

Happening from the second May bank holiday on Monday 27th until Thursday 30th May 2019, there's an eclectic mix of free activities for all ages, including an outdoor cinema, live music and entertainment, irresistible street food, Craft Beer Fair, pop-up bars, panels & talks, theatre, sports & wellbeing activities, family activities and much more.

There's the Craft Beer Fair on Bank Holiday Monday, with over 20 local breweries taking part and craft beer on tap from local brewers Redchurch, Truman’s and Five Points all week long! There's also a selection of street food, the full list of vendors to be announced.

Free outdoor cinemas has a line-up of films for all the family - all voted for by the public. The movies on offer will be a mix of classics (Back to the Future), new releases (Bohemian Rhapsody), family favourites (Mary Poppins Returns) and the biggest blockbusters (Black Panther). Each evening there's emerging music talent from artists including 47SOUL, London Contemporary Voices and Grand Union Youth Orchestra.

Get creative and learn your craft with Hackney Arts - whether it’s an upcycled festival flag or a tie dye tote bag masterpiece, join one of the many free workshops to make a special piece for you to treasure and keep. Explore the captivating history of grime music and East London with Rich Mix’s Generation Grime:Back2Bow, as part of their annual festival of creativity, PLAY-HOUSE. There’s free storytelling with Museum of London Docklands and you can take a trip to the circus with the aerial circus performances and free workshops with Upswing. You can serve up an ace on the free tennis courts with Tower Hamlets Tennis, get down with Chisenhale Dance, or immerse yourself in the live podcast experience with Queen Mary University of London.

As a London exclusive for Bank Holiday Monday, JägerHaus has teamed up with Soho Radio to bring you an unforgettable line up including Terri Walker, Joel Culpepper, Kitty Liv & Royal Organ Duo and Du Blonde. On top of a jam-packed music line up JägerHaus are also giving you the chance to learn the history behind the iconic herbal liquor, find out why Jägermeister is best served at -18° plus learn how to make delicious Jägermeister cocktails.

On Tuesday and Wednesday evening on the bandstand will be Mariah & Friendz - London’s iconic drag, circus, burlesque extravaganza loosely based around Mariah Carey! Expect sickening stunts, joyous audience participation, over-the-top LOLs and in your face queer campery!

In The Neighbourhood will host the free UK Premiere Screening of Goodnight London – a film exploring the hard-hitting issues of gentrification. This gives a platform for voices all over the city to be heard, plus a panel on the night will discuss the effects on communities and creatives across London, featuring the iconic punk-turned-folk singer Frank Turner, Liv Little (founder of gal-dem magazine) and Jamz Supernova (BBC Radio 1Xtra). And you too can get involved and make your voice heard! Please visit the website for further details.

The East End Film Festival is also heading to In The Neighbourhood. Discover the hot new films and homegrown talent with the unique showings and even immerse yourself in the action with their interactive workshops. There’s plenty for children and adults of all ages with the magical and witty storytelling by Half Moon Theatre, plus fire up your imagination with puppet shows by Bus King Theatre.

MoreYoga returns after their first super popular year at All Points East, helping you unwind on your lunch break or after work in the natural and calming setting of Victoria Park with free sessions everyday until 8pm. Plus with sustainability being the word on everyone’s lips, In The Neighbourhood has partnered with ecoACTIVE to create free hands-on workshops each day, putting the power back in people’s hands to create a more sustainable way of living - why not get involved!
