Royal Wharf Park is set once more to fill with the sounds, sights, scents and flavours of seasonal revelry on June 28, 2025.

Promising a day of family fun with live music, entertainment, fitness classes, kids’ workshops, street food stalls and a waterfront craft market, the east London green space will be transformed between 11am and 5pm.

Over six hours, the Royal Wharf Summer Fete 2025, features a packed programme with contributions from resident artists, small businesses, performers and independent traders.

Hosted by joint developers Ballymore and Oxley, the event has become a firm favourite in the Royal Docks calendar, acting as a focal point for the community and a showcase for the extensive regeneration of the area.
