Lambeth residents are rallying against a movement to block late-night events and festivals in the borough, specifically in Brockwell Park. A legal challenge has been launched by Protect Brockwell Park, which has raised significant funds to fight for access to the park for events that locals enjoy. An open letter stresses that a powerful minority should not dictate the future of Lambeth, with a call to action from young renters, workers, and creatives who make up the majority. They argue that the vibrant night economy is essential for jobs and community connection.
Without music venues, clubs, and late-night cafes, Lambeth risks becoming sterile, unaffordable, and soulless, pushing young people out of the community instead of fostering it.
The majority of Lambeth residents enjoy festivals like Mighty Hoopla and Cross the Tracks, which bring joy, connection, and opportunity to our vibrant night-time economy.
