202 - What a Weekend... 🗓
It’s not often that we devote The Localist to event listings solely—mainly because London’s Pretty Cool does such a great job—but this weekend is packed and it’d be a shame you didn’t know where at least four of the big parties were taking place! 🎉
Eid Al Fitr Expo 🏰
The Events Co. brings the first of two Muslim Lifestyle Expos planned for 2023 to Earl Nichols Arena this weekend with their Eid Al Fitr Expo. Featuring 100+ vendors, halal food trucks AND BOUNCY CASTLES (!!), the event looks to build on the success of last year’s inaugural expo and the 11,000 attendees who enjoyed it! 💯

Earthfest 🐝
Earthfest returns to help Londoners celebrate Earth Day on Saturday, April 22 with events and activities spread across Dundas Place, Central Library and Citi Plaza. The full schedule is worth checking out here, but we’re particularly excited to see tattoo artists, chalk artists, fashion designers, musicians and urban farmers taking part this year! 🌎

Punk Rock Flea Market London 👁🕯
PRFML’s spring pop-up keeps the party rolling Sunday on Dundas Place from 11am-4pm. With over 50 vendors and 5 musical acts it’s hard to pick our favourites… but we are excited to see the Fluffy’s Pizza Monster making an appearance c/o Brand Dead alongside mashed-up toys from Yoyodyne Toy Division, prints from Shark Bite Ink, and Abbie Darling Customs’ upcycled jewellery and fashion! 🛍

Record Store Day 🎧
It’s easy enough to make every day Record Store Day with the likes of Grooves, Odyssey, The Village Idiot and Speed City in town—but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t head down to any one of these local shops to tell ‘em you love ‘em with a purchase (or three) on Saturday, April 22nd! 🤘
