MIK Festival Resident Support

This is a great opportunity to make the area a destination, to support the
local economy, community spirit, and safety by bringing in positive community
activities into the park which will deter unsavoury and criminal activities and
individuals.

This is a very good opportunity for the community to get together, and also for
the more under-represented demographic (e.g. East Asians) to showcase their
cultural practices. Having a community event such as this will also mean that
relationships can be closely fostered within the area, especially amongst the
residents. There is a lot of positivity to be had out of this, given that the
Northwick Park area is prone to anti social behaviour.

I was very excited to hear about this proposal. This will be a wonderful event
for different cultures to come together and will mean a lot to the East Asian
community and beyond. My young nieces would love to see this event go forward,
so this message of support is for them too. How I wish something like this
happened when I was younger and growing up in Brent. Representation matters!!!

I’d like to support this incentive. It will boost the local economy and will be
an exciting addition to the community. Music and the arts is always a positive
thing.

Another venue for entertainment around this area must be a good thing to
promote the area.

Unfortunately the Gaelic Football will be cancelled, probably ruining their season completely, plus one Cricket Pitch will also be lost. But don't worry, some people here think it's a good idea to have a concert partly funded by the Arts Council to the tune of £450,000 and catering for a Korean population that doesn't exist in the area. As for the people who live within a few yards of the event, including hospital shift workers, let 'em suck it up. As for there being a boost to the local economy, how, the event is a lock in. There are no catering outlets anywhere around before or after the event. Some people may such uniformed comments.
They keep mentioning community so assume tickets will be free for the whole of the local community to attend?
