Our local Peckham radio station Balamii will also be hosting a stage showcasing local talent.

As well as the great music, Jam on Rye will be serving up some great food by local Peckham food traders like Deserted Cactus, Garden Of Eden and Bokit'La as well as award winning street food traders like Bleeker Burger, Baba G's, Club Mexicana and BBQ Dreamz.

This Peckham festival is family friendly - offering a programme of activities for kids to enjoy and a playground situated inside a whole dome, with activities such as the messy 'slime factory' to keep the young ones entertained.

Jam on Rye organisers will also be looking after the environment with 100% of food traders using compostable containers and committed to cutting out single use plastics as well as reusable cups and recycling.
