The Shoreditch Festival has been brought forward to July for 2009. The opening event in Shoreditch Park is followed by a host of street arts, theatre and workshops all around the area, many of which are free. Highlights include Proms in Shoreditch Park with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and a firework finale, performances by the English National Ballet, plus live music across two stages including the brand new Shoreditch Park amphitheatre. There are old fashioned tea dances, modern theatre shows, Shoreditch Bark dog show, bouldering competitions and plenty to keep the kids entertained with a special children's area, a huge variety of stalls and food. The LIFT returns to Shoreditch Festival taking theatre to the park with a portable performance space and a programme of events, shows and workshops.
