Annual summer festival now a highlight of our local cultural calendar

Hammersmith and Fulham's own arts festival, H F ArtsFest is back from Saturday 3 till Sunday 11 June.

Bushstock Festival at Bush Hall and Fulham Symphony Orchestra performing in Lyric Square.

Working in partnership with our borough's world class arts venues, it also provides a unique opportunity for local

The programme includes visual art exhibitions, theatre, comedy, circus, music, dance, play readings, physical
theatre performances and interactive workshops.
