Now in its seventh year, International Busking Day will return this summer with big names, alongside up and coming artists and grassroots acts. International Busking Day is presented by Busk in London, supported by the Mayor of London. in 2021 it scooped up an award at the prestigious Music Cities Awards, a global competition designed to reward the most outstanding applications of music for social and cultural development in cities all around the world. Previous headliners and special guests included Nile Rodgers, KT Tunstall, The Noisettes, Newton Faulkner, and Nina Nesbitt.

Taking place on a rather sunny (we hope!) Saturday 16 July 2022 at Wembley Park, 12 minutes by tube from Central London, International Busking Day is a great opportunity to support some of the hottest home-grown talent and world-class street performers, in London’s most iconic destination for music and live entertainment.

With 10 outdoor stages and performance plots in close proximity to Wembley Stadium and the OVO Arena Wembley, International Busking Day will also feature street performers across a variety of disciplines, including music, dance and circus arts. International Busking Day is certainly the best free festival around, and all in London’s most exciting new neighbourhood. One of these stages will be fully dedicated to emerging musicians from NW London nurturing local talent to become the next headliners at Wembley venues.
