CPRE, England’s countryside charity, is advocating for stricter regulations on festivals held in London’s parks after a pivotal legal ruling that jeopardizes the summer music scene. The organization emphasizes limiting space usage to less than a tenth or one acre of available green space for large events, along with capping the number of rental days by local authorities. This push arises in response to community backlash against recent approvals for festivals, particularly at Brockwell Park, leading to increased scrutiny of festival programs across various boroughs.
"CPRE has called on the Government to push ahead stronger temporal and spatial restrictions on big events being held in green spaces across the capital to prevent their over exploitation as commercial venues."
"Following a landmark High Court decision, resident groups are urging local councils to review their festival programs immediately to protect the integrity of public green spaces."
