Lick City FM - Finsbury Fest 2026
A free community celebration at Finsbury Park
Lick City FM is teaming up with Finsbury Fest 2026 to bring you an unforgettable summer evening in the heart of North London. Expect a vibrant showcase of local talent, great food, and pure good vibes under the summer sun.
Finsbury Fest is the umbrella name for the major festivals and concerts hosted in Finsbury Park — including the iconic Wireless Festival, renowned for its UK Garage, urban, hip‑hop, and headline performances.
Over the years, the park has become a cornerstone of London’s summer music culture, drawing crowds with everything from indie to rock, UK Garage to grime and beyond.
Supported by Haringey Council and sponsored by Festival Republic, this event will spotlight emerging musicians from the local community and give them the chance to perform on a major platform.
