Mount Street Neighbourhood is proud to welcome back its Arts Festival – a week-long celebration of culture, creativity and community in the heart of Mayfair.

Following last year’s inaugural edition, the festival returns this October to coincide with two of London’s most significant cultural moments: art fairs Frieze London and PAD London. Across the neighbourhood, discover a unique curation of visual arts, literature, fashion and food, brought to life by some of today’s most exciting artists, designers and thinkers.

This year, the festival shines a spotlight on the world of books, with readings, conversations and creative encounters exploring the relationship between art and literature.
