Celebrating Community in the Heart of London 

Every summer, the Fitzrovia Community Centre hosts the Fitzrovia Fête – a joyful celebration of our vibrant neighbourhood and its diverse people. 

Set in the heart of Fitzrovia, this annual street party brings together local residents, families, businesses, artists, and organisations for a day of connection, creativity, and fun. 


What is the Fitzrovia Fête?

The Fitzrovia Fête is a free-to-attend community festival, run by the Centre as part of Westminster Council’s Inside Out Festival and showcases the best of our local area through: 

  • Live music and performances from local acts and cultural groups 

  • Food and drink stalls featuring independent businesses and community bakers 

  • Art and craft workshops for all ages 

  • Sustainability-themed activities and local environmental groups 

  • Family-friendly games and activities for children 

  • Stalls from local organisations and charities 

Whether you're a long-time resident or new to the neighbourhood, the Fête is a warm and welcoming place to spend the afternoon.
