ATTEND<br />
Croydon’s biggest summer party is set to sizzle<br />
for the 7th great year with a great line up of<br />
music, entertainment and fabulous food for the<br />
whole family.<br />
The Croydon Food and Music Festival in<br />
association with Leon House will be held from<br />
12 noon to 7pm on Sunday, 24th <strong>June</strong> in the<br />
heart of the borough’s famous Restaurant<br />
Quarter.<br />
The hugely popular FREE event, which<br />
attracted more than 12,000 people last<br />
summer, will once again see the ‘villagey’<br />
South End closed to traffic to allow visitors to<br />
relax and enjoy the carnival atmosphere.<br />
Visitors can sample world cuisine from dozens<br />
of street food and restaurant stalls, dining<br />
alfresco at tables along the street. There will be<br />
cocktail and prosecco bars for the grown-ups<br />
– and street performers and entertainment for<br />
the children throughout the afternoon.<br />
Peter Bagatti, SCBA deputy chairman and<br />
owner of Bagatti’s Restaurant, on South End,<br />
who are taking part in the event, added:<br />
“Last year’s festival was a fantastic day which<br />
showcased our exciting and fast changing<br />
borough at its very best.<br />
“It brought together people of all backgrounds<br />
and cultures to enjoy great food and music in a<br />
happy, carnival atmosphere. And bringing people<br />
together is what the Croydon Food & Music<br />
Festival is all about."<br />
Two featured stages will host top class acts and<br />
bands performing every genre of music from<br />
folk and rock to jazz and blues.<br />
The festival was founded by South Croydon<br />
Business Association (SCBA) and organised on<br />
their behalf by White Label Creative. It is also<br />
sponsored by Bagatti’s Restaurant,<br />
Bryden Johnson, London Borough of Croydon<br />
