In The NBHD: All Points East’s free festival programme announced

Sandwiched between the music festival’s two weekends of stellar music including Stormzy’s This Is What We Mean Day, The Strokes, Amyl and the Sniffers and HAIM, In The NBHD is a four day, family-friendly programme of music, culture, wellbeing activities and sports.

Running between Sunday, August 20 and Wednesday August 23 and produced in collaboration with Tower Hamlets Council, the festival will host an outdoor cinema which will screen new releases such as Air, Rye Lane and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, as well as documentaries and hits of the past such as He Named Me Malala, I Am Bolt and Yesterday.
