Info: The One Hackney Festival 2012 is a borough wide event taking place on 21 July to welcome the Olympic flame.

Everyone who lives and works in or visits Hackney will be invited to take part in the celebrations in many different ways.

The whole day will be a distinctively local celebration, but special guests from elsewhere in London, from UK cities such as Liverpool and Glasgow, and from overseas, will add a regional and international flavour.

The parade

On the day itself there will be a vibrant and musical street parade, moving to a specially-composed soundtrack of Hackney, and culminating in an event in one of London's finest parks, Clissold Park, Stoke Newington. At Clissold Park, you will be able to take part in a mass celebration dance to our own Hackney Anthem.

Festival fringe

Accompanying the parade will be a Festival fringe which will extend the celebrations to Hackney's distinctive town centres, with food, performance and music throughout the borough.
