Carnaval del PuebloThis loud, colourful Carnaval del Pueblo fiesta of all things Latin American, now in its 13th year, is a celebration of their roots for expat communities in the capital, and a massive party for the rest of us. In 2011 the festival had to be cancelled due to work on Burgess Park, so this long awaited event has the potential to be a seriously good party. Proceedings kick off at midday when a procession of brightly-coloured floats are paraded down the streets of Southwark, admired by over 100,000 people. The route usually sees them wind their way from Elephant Street near London City Hall down to Burgess Park, taking in Tooley Street, Borough High Street and Elephant and Castle along the way. Once at Burgess Park, revellers can enjoy regionally-themed food, drink, live music and, of course, dance late into the night. There are a number of different stages offering everything from traditional music to the freshest reggaeton and Latin hip-hop.
 

About Burgess Park

With 130 parks and open spaces in Southwark it's one of the greenest boroughs in London and at 46 hectares, Burgess Park is the largest park in Southwark. The park was created to help transform one of Southwark's most densely populated areas in the wake of the second world war blitz. More about Burgess Park
