Primrose Hill is to be the location of a eccentric procession as artists, musicians and performers from across the UK parade their handmade costumes in a modern day celebration of the art of disguise. The event which takes place on the 30th of October starts from the headquarters of the English Folk Dance and Song Society at Cecil Sharpe House and climbs to the summit of Primrose Hill. Now in its 3rd year and has grown from a small handful of artists to over 40 artists and members of the public taking part last year. This years organisers Nathalie Levi and Megan Broadmeadow have invited artists who are renowned for creating weird and wonderful costumes; the type of which will not be found in your average fancy dress shop. The procession is completed by performances taking place at the top of Primrose Hill at sundown. The public are welcome to join in for free by creating and parading in their own homemade costumes based on the theme ‘Masks and Rituals’ and should meet at Cecil Sharpe House at 4pm to begin the 20 minute walk to the top of the hill.
