Noise
Sound checks and rehearsals will take place the day before and on the morning of each event. They will not exceed a 90-minute duration within a pre-agreed, 3-hour window.
Low-level, recorded music will be played once the gates open until the first act comes on stage.
In 2022 and 2024, Festival Republic carried out independent vibrations studies during live event days and they will be doing this again during the 2025 event days. Festival Republic’s noise and vibration team are happy to answer any community questions on the findings.
Please note that we are running 2 community events on Tuesday 8 and Wednesday 9 July, which give opportunities to perform and play for local artists, school pupils and young people within Haringey, Hackney and Islington. The internal roads and paths within the park will be temporarily unavailable on both these days.
Pyrotechnics
There will be pyrotechnic displays throughout the events. Once the timings are confirmed, they will be available on the Festival Republic resident website.
