What: LONDON’S FREE, ANNUAL OUTDOOR PERFORMING ARTS FESTIVAL
GDIF is set to be the UK’s first full festival to take place since lockdown began in March. Much of the programme reflects the challenges and embraces the positives to come from the last few months, whilst incorporating social distancing, ticketing for capacities, and some inventive reimagining of public space to keep everyone safe.
Installations running over several days celebrating the NHS, togetherness, and the environment will ensure that audiences can visit at staggered times with plenty of space for social distancing. A new initiative, entitled On Your Doorstep, will bring a carefully curated programme of family-friendly circus and street theatre to the heart of communities in Greenwich, Greenwich Peninsula, Woolwich Common Estate, Woolwich Arsenal, Thamesmead, Plumstead, and Eltham.
Dancing City, our annual outdoor dance programme at Canary Wharf, returns this year, reinvented with safe-distancing integrated into the performances and audience experience.
The programme will also include exciting larger-scale outdoor theatre pieces, with reduced capacities and ticketed entry to ensure that the festival experience is a safe and enjoyable one for everyone.
Tickets will be available for general booking from Thursday 6 August 2020 at 12 noon.
