London’s first ever Elvis Presley festival in Dagenham Park this summer marked the 40th anniversary of the King of Rock N’ Roll’s death. Multi award-winning Elvis Presley tribute artists Dean Z and Pete Storm were set to headline the day of entertainment. Storm, who has been performing for over a decade, said: “It’s a fantastic event; there’ll be lots of fun, lots of entertainment.” The family event forms part of Barking and Dagenham Council’s Summer of Festivals, which also includes the Barking Folk Festival, Roundhouse Music Festival and the One Borough Festival. Councillor Saima Ashraf, Deputy Leader, Community Leadership and Engagement said: “We had over 100,000 people from the borough, London and elsewhere going to our summer of Festivals. It’s London’s largest programme of summer events in one borough.”
