Street parties this summer?

[muppet19]

I am a locally based journalist looking for an example of a small road/square/development that regularly has street parties and has a very communal buzz. Would just want a few quotes from a resident. Please PM me, thanks.

Albert Square - Walford

[Peckhamrye]

Choumert Gardens have an annual shindig.

Sadly, it became too heavy a burden on the same few people each year, and several of the original organisers have moved away.

ETA: Waverley Avenue in Nunhead has not just an annual street party but an annual coach outing, so a proper community, however as this is the East Dulwich Forum the residents may not see this thread.

Archdale Road has one every year and is happening again on June 12th this year for the Big Lunch

Gowlett Road is having its 6th Big Lunch on the 12th of June

Stuart Road in Nunhead has a street party this Sunday, and The Ivy House will be taking part.

Mundania Road is having one some time in September. You can also have a quote:
