Radiate Windrush Festival

On Monday June 22, the UK will mark Windrush Day, the date the Empire Windrush arrived at Tilbury Docks in 1948, bringing with it more than 1,000 passengers from Caribbean countries who would transform British culture for the better. The day is a chance to pay tribute to the legacy of the Windrush generation. Radiate Windrush Festival will be starting things off early with a socially distanced party in Crystal Palace Park. It’s now in its third year, but the organisers have gone all out for 2021 with live performances, art murals, Caribbean and Creole food stalls, a vintage village, a natural hair expo, an Afro-Classics Car Show and a full on Sound System Village. With so many major music festivals delayed, it’ll be the first taste of a proper sound system we’ve had all year.
