Day and night, you’ll enjoy spectacular live performances on the festival’s ENTERTAINMENT STAGE, including exclusive sets from VIP artists and rising local talent.
THE LONDON FESTIVAL is the first festival in the world to give full casting powers to the general public. All acts will be selected via a city-wide vote. Anyone can register.
The opening and closing ceremonies promise a show like no other, with a host of high-profilers set to take the spotlight. From rock bands and dance troupes to singers and comedians, there’s entertainment for everybody!
Londoners from all walks of life can register to perform on the festival’s ENTERTAINMENT STAGE including singers, bands, comedians, dance troupes, magicians, circus acts, rappers, and ventriloquists.
To register, you must be over 16 years of age and live in one of the capital’s 32 boroughs. This is an incredible opportunity to elevate your career after a very challenging lockdown.
All registered applicants can promote themselves via the festival’s official website. Your online portfolio is your place to shine — post your bio, songs, videos, etc.
The stage is strictly for London-based performers (with each act to be chosen by the public). Our unique voting system champions inclusion, empowers the people, and ensures that a diverse range of artists perform.
Over 200 local acts will be featured on stage across the duration of the festival. What’s more, all performers will receive grants to advance their careers. There’s no festival like this one!
Vote for your favourite acts on THE LONDON FESTIVAL website. This interactive process allows you, the audience, to decide the lineup — from seasoned performers to amateur talent.
Each member of the public can select 10 different acts. Winners will be announced in January 2023 across TLF’s social media and on the festival’s official website
