Haringey Culture Collective is set to deliver the borough's London Borough of Culture 2027 programme.

In March 2026, Haringey Council officially accepted a £2,165,000 grant from the Greater London Authority and Arts Council England to fund its London Borough of Culture 2027 programme. This decision, approved by Councillor Emily Arkell, Cabinet Member for Culture & Leisure, enables the Haringey Culture Collective to deliver the year-long cultural celebration, which includes the Liberty Festival.

The programme, themed 'Rebel Borough', will highlight Haringey's working-class heritage and history of activism. The Haringey Culture Collective, a council-controlled charity, is established to deliver this cultural programme, which was awarded to the borough by the Mayor of London in April 2024.
