Brockwell Park festival organisers say that events will go ahead this summer despite High Court ruling
Briefly

Brockwell Park's festivals, including Mighty Hoopla and Field Day, are facing legal challenges after Protect Brockwell Park (PBP) won a High Court ruling against Lambeth Council. The court decided in favor of PBP, arguing that the festivals lack proper planning permission as they exceed the agreed duration of 28 days. However, festival organizers, Brockwell Live, maintain that they will proceed with the events as planned, clarifying that the ruling pertains to administrative issues rather than cancellations. This tension highlights ongoing disputes over park usage and community rights.
In a recent High Court ruling, Protect Brockwell Park won its case against Lambeth Council, questioning the legality of festivals like Mighty Hoopla due to planning permissions.
Brockwell Live confirmed that all planned events are going ahead as scheduled, citing the High Court ruling as relating only to administrative processes, and emphasizing their commitment to the park.
