This year the annual shopping festival in Palmers Green - to be held on 5th July - will be transformed into a Shopping Carnival and expanded. In addition to the usual children's attractions at the Green Lanes end of Hazelwood Lane, there will be two music stages - one in Green Lanes, the other on Aldermans Hill. And the Triangle will become a market place.
The Green Lanes Business Association, which organises the Shopping Carnival, is encouraging shops, restaurants and cafes to make the most of the day by setting up stalls on the pavement outside their premises, give away free samples and generally take the opportunity to promote their business.
