Highgate Festival

Get to know all of leafy Highgate’s nooks and crannies at this fest taking place across N6, NW5 and N19 that promises to pack in more eclectic entertainment than a Royal Variety Performance. Keep an eye out for a stage adaption of ​​Paula Hawkin’s ‘The Girl on the Train’, a tour of the area’s unique pink plaques celebrating remarkable local women, a ‘micro panto’ to mark the Queen’s Jubilee, a community fun day on Hampstead Heath and Fair in the Square, where you can eat, dance and be merry with the locals.
