Welcome to Leytonstone Festival 2008...
Welcome to the 2008 Leytonstone Festival and keep the 5th to 13th July in your diary!

Meera Syal
Organised by the Leytonstone Festival Association and run entirely by volunteers, the Festival is now in its fifteenth year.
Its continuing healthy development stems from the generosity of local effort and the richness of local ability, reflecting the vibrancy of our many different communities.
Our programme features music of every variety, opera, drama, film, dance, comedy, poetry, and visual art and handicrafts, alongside walks, talks, community days, a youth festival, and socialising.

Drama Group
Many of the events are free, and where there is a charge, it is modest.
There are performances by nationally known stars, and a whole host of local people, from every background and age-group.
In the following pages, you can find out about the Festival, as well as details of how to join in.

Carnival Parade
If you have an idea for an event, please do contact us – we are always interested, and will do our best to help.
But, however you want to participate, whether as artist, audience member or volunteer, we warmly welcome you and hope that you enjoy yourselves.
