From arts and crafts workshops, bands, comedians and events for kids to exhibitions, film screenings, sport and wellbeing and talks, there will be something for everyone to experience and enjoy.

Now in its 14th year, the UK’s biggest community arts festival is a celebration of art in all its forms and genres – be it children’s choirs, punk bands, local history or street art.

You can find event listings for Hornsey Library on the Crouch End Festival website, where you can also discover more details about this year’s Tower Music Festival.

As well as Hornsey Library, other local venues that will be staging CEF25 activities and events include: the Clock Tower, Crouch End Picturehouse, GNRT, The Hap’ning Place, Holy Innocents, Hornsey Vale Community Centre, Kings Head, Meadow Orchard, the Old Hornsey College of Art, the Old Lotus Building, St Mary’s Tower and Gardens, Stationers Park, The ArtHouse and The Intimate Space.

There’ll be plenty of surprises along the way too in community-based settings and spaces such as cafes, pop-ups, pubs, restaurants and shops.

Here’s the full listings of CEF25 events in date order. New events are added daily, but festival goers and residents are advised to double-check a few days before in case of changes. Free events are marked with a green tag, whereas paid events are coloured blue.
