West Norwood Feast Taste the Feast, 1st Sunday of each month

West Norwood Feast is South London’s favourite community run market that takes place on the first Sunday of the month from April – December. It is a people powered market! The West Norwood Feast is like no other as it is run entirely by local people through a network of volunteers.

The monthly outdoor market is more than just the exchange of money for goods – it’s a celebration of the diversity, talent and entrepreneurial skills of the area. Feast’s aim is to create a platform for the community to come together and make West Norwood at even better place to live.

The West Norwood Feast comprises four specialist themed market hubs happening simultaneously on the day, alongside street theatre, entertainment and music.

Food Fair – street food from around the world; Retro Village – a treasure trove of vintage goods; Artisan’s Market – a showcase of local artists, crafts people and makers; Fresh n Green – fresh breads, meats and cheeses and deli supplies; and the more recently added Family Hub, located just outside WN Leisure centre, provides a relaxing haven for both kids and parents alike with free kids activities from Lambeth Play Partners and a DJ line up and bar to help parents unwind.
