LIDO festival VIP ticket competition

LIDO Festival, the newest addition to London’s summer calendar, is set to arrive in Victoria Park this June.

Named after Victoria Park’s historic Lido Field, this two weekend festival will feature carefully curated music line-ups alongside community-driven activities during the week, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability.

 Headliners include:

• Friday 6 June - Massive Attack
• Saturday 7 June - Jamie xx
• Friday 13 June - Outbreak Festival
• Saturday 14 June - Charli xcx
• Sunday 15 June - London Grammar

This festival is a fantastic showcase for our borough's rich and diverse culture, which we are celebrating with our #LoveTowerHamlets hashtag. There’s a lot to love in the borough, from the bustling and busy Brick Lane and the stunning skyline of Canary Wharf to the vibrancy of Lido festival’s much-loved host, Victoria Park.

LIDO Festival, in partnership with Tower Hamlets Council, is also offering a free-to-enter community programme of weekday activities from Monday 9 to Thursday 12 June 2025. This programme welcomes everyone, so head down to our Vicky Park to make the most of everything on offer, including live music and entertainment, sports and wellbeing, arts and crafts workshops, children’s theatre, plus a street food market and pop-up bars and much more!
