LIDO Festival, the latest addition to London’s summer calendar, will debut in Victoria Park this June, and Tower Hamlets residents have the exclusive chance to win a pair of VIP tickets.
Running across two weekends—6–7 June and 13–15 June—the festival promises an electrifying music line-up featuring Massive Attack, Jamie xx, Charli XCX, London Grammar, and Outbreak Festival, alongside a weekday programme of free, family-friendly events from 9–11 June. All this unfolds on Victoria Park’s historic Lido Field—the very inspiration behind the festival’s name.
With its focus on sustainability, local culture and community engagement, LIDO Festival will also host wellbeing sessions, arts and crafts, children’s theatre, a street food market, and pop-up bars. As part of the council’s #LoveTowerHamlets campaign, the festival celebrates everything that makes the borough vibrant and unique—from Brick Lane’s buzz to Canary Wharf’s skyline.
