The 5th Islington Festival of Music and Art will take place in July: a 10-day explosion of wonderful live music in magical venues throughout the Borough.
Adopting the theme of “Simple Gifts” from Copland’s Appalachian spring, they will present several pieces that were written as dedications. From musical love letters to sounds of remembrance, passing through some commissions too, they will take you on a journey through some inspired musical gifts that celebrate friends, mentors and patrons.
The festival takes place across 9 different venues across Islington; some events are free, with others ranging from £15.00–£30.00. All events are free for children, with £10.00 tickets available for under-25s.
Organisers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
