Save The Opening Night

The community encompassed by Brockley Max has changed drastically in the 20 years since the festival began. The area is more family-friendly, has more amenities and shops and the socio-economic make-up of the area has also changed.

Memories of Brockley Max will be a curated self-guided audio-visual tour of festival locations in Brockley, Crofton Park and Ladywell both past and present with interviews, music and images. The project will introduce and memorialise the events and venues from previous years, giving a social history of our creative community. The trail will celebrate 20 years of the Brockley Max Festival and re-engage the community with our local arts, so badly affected by Covid.

Participants will be able to engage with the project in a Covid-safe way, using a phone app to access interviews and past performance at event venues. We want to be sure it's accessible to as many people as possible. We'll be signposting locations as well as providing a downloadable guide will which will form part of the project’s legacy. There will even be an exhibition (also available online) where you can view the memories trail and add your own memories of the festival.
