FOREST GATE FESTIVAL 2026 IS DONE!

A huge thank you to every single person who came out and supported us on Saturday, we all had an amazing time and loved seeing so many happy faces.

A huge thank you to our brilliant stall holders, so much delicious food and drink on offer, so many amazingly talented creative showing off their work, and so many lovely items on sale.

To our entertainers and musicians, thank you for your performances - so many amazing moments.

And to the people that volunteered their time - whether that be to offer a calm space for children, play areas, stewards and litter pickers, and to our committee of volunteers who spend months of their time planning this - THANK YOU!

Every penny raised for the festival goes back into putting on future festivals, and every year we worry if it could be the last one we can afford to put on - if you'd like to support the festival and ensure it's future please donate via the link in bio and in the stories.
