Summary

Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on Haringey and are not the council. About us

The Alexandra Park and Palace Statutory Advisory Committee is scheduled to meet on Thursday 18 June 2026. The meeting's agenda includes discussions on traffic-related anti-social behaviour on Alexandra Palace Way, the Alexandra Park outdoor events programme, and a progress report from the Charitable Trust.

Response to Traffic-Related Anti-Social Behaviour on Alexandra Palace Way

The committee is scheduled to review a report concerning traffic-related anti-social behaviour on Alexandra Palace Way and the surrounding areas. The report is expected to detail issues such as dangerous driving, street racing, and excessive noise, which have been reported to cause alarm and distress to residents and visitors. The report will outline the partnership response to date, involving Haringey Council, the Metropolitan Police, local Safer Neighbourhood Teams, and Alexandra Palace security. It will also cover the legal and enforcement context, including the use of Public Spaces Protection Orders1 by Haringey Council, and explore additional measures under consideration to deter and detect such incidents. These measures may include increased police and security presence, a review of CCTV coverage, and potential use of monitoring technologies.

Alexandra Park Outdoor Events Report

A report is scheduled to be presented regarding Alexandra Park's outdoor events programme for 2026. This will include details on the Summer Series, which comprises six outdoor concerts and the Kaleidoscope Festival, with a maximum capacity of 14,500 per event. The report will also cover the Red Bull Soapbox event, a biennial event scheduled for 20 June 2026 with a maximum attendance of 20,000. Furthermore, the Fireworks and Drone Festival, a flagship event attracting up to 45,000 attendees per night, is scheduled for Saturday 7 November and Sunday 8 November 2026, with a revised format to include an earlier, reduced capacity Sunday display. The report will detail operational impacts, including park and road closures, and bus diversions associated with these events.

Charitable Trust - Progress Report

The committee is scheduled to receive a general update on the progress of the Alexandra Park and Palace Charitable Trust for the financial year 2026/27. The report is expected to align with the Trust's vision to Create a Sustainable Home for All That We Do and will highlight key delivery milestones, issues, and achievements. Updates are anticipated across several strategic goals, including providing entertainment and culture, building climate change resilience, protecting heritage assets, restoring derelict spaces, safeguarding the parkland, inspiring and engaging communities, strengthening overall resilience, and establishing new partnerships. Specific areas of progress may include the delivery of concerts and theatre, improvements to the Ice Rink and Boathouse, the Summit rooftop attraction, energy efficiency measures, heritage conservation works, park management activities, archive development, and community engagement programmes.
