Music lovers will love the modern take on tradition from the *Hackney Colliery Band* or can relax over some great tunes, food and drink at the* Jamcafé Bandstand Takeover*.
All the family will enjoy the Three Inch Fools' romp through the* Adventures of Robin Hood*, or there's a *comedy club* just for kids, as well as *Shlomo's Beatbox Adventure*.
