About

A lost landmark returns to the heart of Romford — a meeting point between past, present and future.

As night falls, one of London’s largest and oldest markets comes to life. Light, projection and sound ripple across the space, reawakening the spirit of the iconic Liberty fountain and the stories it holds. Created by David Shearing, with text by Vickie Donoghue, sound by James Bulley and video projection by Novak, Meet Me by the Fountain brings echoes of memories together in a spectacular experience.

Meet Me by the Fountain weaves together voices and images of the market’s 775 history: from its origins, to the medieval, from wartime to the 80’s, from today and into an imagined future…

Suburban Legends
During the day, the town centre is brought to life through costumed characters, with pop-up moments reawakening the myths and legends of Romford, co-created with local people. 11am to 4pm.
