Village Fête Jubilee
24th - 25th July '09
John Madejski Garden
V&A South Kensington, Cromwell Road, London
Forming part of the V&A’s Friday Late programme, The Village Fête at the V&A is one of the most eagerly anticipated cutting edge design events of the year.
Celebrating the 10th anniversary of this alternative Fête the V&A presents a fun filled programme of games and events for everyone to enjoy.
A carefully selected group of young British designers are invited to conceive and run the stalls. Play Garudio Studiage’s Economic Meltdown Challenge, Bompas & Parr’s version of the classic game Operation; dance to Michael Marriott’s groovy tunes; take aim at cans of spam; and try your hand at Rock and Roll Tiddlewinks.
Fête veterans Rob Ryan, Digit, Tatty Devine, Thomas Matthews, Carl Clerkin and Poke will be joined by a host of newcomers.
Conceived of by the V&A and Scarlet Projects’, the V&A Village Fête is a truly contemporary take on the traditional English fête.
Spaces are limited so come early.
Opening Hours:
Friday 24 July 18.30-22.00 & Saturday 25 July 10.00-17.45
Entrance to the Fête is £3, with 50p concessions.
