And then there is the Respect event which takes over Victoria Park in East London on Saturday.
Latest line up includes Shola Ama, Allison Limerick, Rodney P, Big Brovaz, Ty, Rishi Rich, Michelle Gayle and CMU favourite Terri Walker. Aside from the music this event - designed to celebrate multiculturalism and help combat racism - has a whole host of other entertainments on offer and should be a very fine day out for all the family. Oh yes, and it's free.
