I agree those pictures don't look too bad. But if you actually go to the area it's far worse than what these photos show. Yes the grass will eventually grow back, but the issue is the deep tracks and holes caused by the machinery, the ground is uneven and when those deep ridges are covered in grass you'll not see them and that is dangerous, causing possible injuries -

Because some of what's in the photos looks pretty trifling - like what always happens when you put a tent or object on grass in summer, the grass goes yellow and droopy. And then the rain and sun do their work and it's back to where it was quite quickly. But if the damage is still there in a month, then it needs remediation. Brockwell put up fences and security gates because the open events became unmanageable. Now it has fenced off events - same as Peckham Rye. -

Have you visited the site or are you going by photos? The damage is bad with many areas of missing turf, not even replaced and will probably have to be overseeded. The ground is also more uneven, marred by heavy vehicle treads. In other parts the soil has been churned up and there are holes. For anyone who is a regular visitor to the park, the ornamental aspect of this area has been ruined. In summers past, people would picnic throughout this area, you couldn't do that now. The grass will grow back but unlikely to be restored until autumn and by then the summer is gone and the whole cycle begins again. -
