As East Finchley Festival approaches, we’d like to say a huge thank you to all the volunteers who make the festival possible.

From the team who spend months planning the event, to the amazing people who help with set-up, stewarding, raffle ticket sales, and keeping everything running smoothly on the day. We couldn’t do it without you 🌟

East Finchley Festival is entirely volunteer-run, and every year hundreds of hours are given by local people who care about bringing our community together. Thank you for your time, energy and enthusiasm ❤️

We’re still looking for a few extra helping hands for Sunday 21 June. Whether you can spare an hour or a whole afternoon, we’d love to hear from you.

There are lots of roles available, including:
🎟️ Raffle ticket sellers
🦺 Stewards and marshals
🎪 Activity and merchandise tent helpers
🔨 Set-up and pack-down crew

Thank you to every volunteer, past and present. You are the heart of the festival 💛
