Four Enfield parks will become mini music venues next weekend to celebrate the end of the London 2012 Festival.

Enfield Council announced today that Broomfield Park, Hilly Fields, Ponders End Park and Albany Park will host the free Bandstand Marathon on Sunday, September 9.

Acts including urban pop artists Cardan Javy, R&B acapella group 4 Real and 60s soul from the Soul Agents are amongst the line-up.

Councillor Bambos Charalambous, Enfield Council Cabinet Member for Culture, Leisure, Youth and Localism, said: “We are thrilled to be part of this great national celebration of music.

“It will be a great day out for families, residents and visitors to come and enjoy some great music in Enfield’s beautiful parks.”

The event is one of hundreds of outdoor concerts taking place on Sunday in bandstands and outdoor performance spaces across the UK.

More than 12,000 performances and events have been organised throughout the UK as part of the London 2012 Festival, which is designed to give everyone a chance to be part of London 2012.
