08 Jun Summer Festival returns for 2021
The BID is delighted to announce that its much-loved Summer Festival will be back in Hammersmith from the end of June 2021.
Last year, due to coronavirus restrictions, the BID was unable to host any large-scale events; although we were able to produce our Travelling Kerbside Entertainment programme to support shielding and vulnerable residents, through August and September.
This summer, pending the final lifting of restrictions for outdoor events, the BID will bring back the Big Screen, covering live broadcast of Wimbledon, the Olympics and the Paralympics. Other highlights will include broadcast of key stages of the Tour de France; as well as special events including film screenings, networking events for our businesses, fitness and hospitality activities. The BID is working in partnership with 245 Hammersmith Road to bring the Big Screen to H&F’s businesses, residents and visitors.
More details of the summer programme will be released soon.
Part of our Summer Festival 2021 will be Lyric Fest – this year scheduled to celebrate the reopening of the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre, as well as the overall reopening of Hammersmith and its businesses after a year of restrictions. Lyric Fest will take place across the weekend of August 20th and 21st. The detailed programme for this weekend, which will focus on family events in Lyric Square on Saturday 21 August, prefaced by drinks, music and a barbeque in the evening of Friday 20th, will be released on our website.
