GALA 2021

Background

Following a year’s hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Gala returned to Peckham Rye Park for its 6th Edition in 2021. Historically, it combines a selection of Peckham and the South East’s diverse restaurant, bar and music culture in a festival format. Usually a two-day festival, the Fair was asked to expand the event over three days for 2021, with a community focussed day included. The Fair was tasked with accommodating new stage designs and facilities, managing an extended build duration and attaining a new premises licence to cover additional durations.

Challenge

  • During the festival build, heavy rain poured over the site, creating additional challenges for infrastructure to be delivered and built.
  • New site design and facilities
  • A new time of year
  • Additional days
  • New crowd dynamics and types
  • Being one of the first significant outdoor events to open in the UK for two years, ensuring Covid protocols and guidance was followed at all times added time to the build, both with logistics and onsite
