Greenwich & Docklands International Festival

A free outdoor performing arts festival across the Greenwich and Docklands area with a programme of theatre, dance and street arts. The annual event is committed to diversity and has commissioned work by artists with disabilities and from diverse backgrounds. Last year’s highlights’ included National Paralympic Day and this year’s programme includes VR Playground, taking visitors on marine life adventure, Physical theatre from Three of a Kind, and swing jazz from the London Gay Big Band.

Some events will be ticketed, and are not free, so check the programme for full details, but if Korean dance troupes, secret dance performances, feats of strength and massive colour wheels pique your curiosity then head down to south east London.
