“Lewisham is such a diverse area. It was important our festival programme reflected that,” said Moira Tait founder and director of Brockely Max Festival.

“We are offering a huge variety of events this year so we’re confident there’s something to suit all tastes …  watching comedy, learning to play the  harmonica or listening to our radio station.”
