Eid on the Square 2026
Details
The Mayor of London's free annual festival is back! Bringing Londoners and visitors together to celebration Eid al-Adha, this year marks the 20th anniversary Eid has been held in the iconic Trafalgar Square.
This event is developed through relationships with our Eid Community Advisory Group, other community groups and arts organisations, celebrating London's diverse Muslim communities in the form of art, culture, literature, history, fashion and food.
Eid on the Square celebrates London's diverse Muslim communities, with involvement and attendance from wider Muslim communities from London and abroad: Turkish, Middle Eastern, Palestinians, Malaysians, Indonesians, North Africa and South Asian communities, and non-Muslims alike.
This is an opportunity for attendees to connect directly with thousands of Londoners from the Muslim community, as well as bring different communities together in a celebration on Trafalgar Square.
This year the main stage is being curated by our Creative Programme Partner, WAW Creative Arts, and will be hosted by Nadia Ali and Juwayria Ghazali.
Watch out for an exciting line up of acts including: London Arab Orchestra, Al Nour Group, Khaled Siddiq and Isam B. Plus, children's favourites Omar and Hana, Grace and Poise Academy and a fun, interactive audience participation piece with Christopher and Ben, The British Muslim Gentlemen. You can also enjoy a lively performance from London Turkish Association Adult Folk Dance Group and the mesmerising Khan Brothers Qawwali Group. This year's opening recitation will be led by Imam Muniri Amour.
There will be a host of activities across the Square including an exciting immersive installation from Everyday Muslim, fencing workshops from Muslim Girls Fence and fun art and craft workshops in Alif New Beginnings Family Zone. Tuck into some tasty treats from one of the food stalls and browse through a selection of community, charity and retails stalls.
