Your best chance if the event is busy is to get there early. There is a maximum capacity in the Gardens of 500 people which we have to stick to no matter how many people show up. Also you are not allowed to bring your own alcohol to the event and security will check this on entry. We keep the Fete free by selling alcohol at the bar. Finally, disabled access is difficult to the Fete as there are steps from Wardour Street. The Church and the Neighbourhood Forum are working on a project to fit a lift but we aren’t there yet.
We are, as ever, looking for volunteers, entertainers and corporate sponsors. Get in touch at fete@thesohosociety.org.uk.
