Industry charity sets date for festival social event next summer

The Barcode Festival, which raises money for the charity, will take place on 8 July in London when more than 4,000 people are expected to attend.

The musical line-up already confirmed includes Bastille, Dizzee Rascal, Becky Hill and Scott Mills with more big names to be added to the festival line-up.

GroceryAid  says that “with so few networking and social opportunities in 2020, tickets are already in high demand for 2021 as companies look for ways to reward their employees and meet with the industry face to face”.

There will be more than 70 sponsor activations at the event which will also provide the opportunity for suppliers to showcase their products to an influential industry audience.

Funds raised from the Barcode Festival, which will take place at Magazine London, a new event space in the capital, will go towards funding GroceryAid.

The charity provides advice, support and financial help for people in the grocery trade who are facing challenges in their lives. More details of the summer event and ticket information are available from the organisation’s website.
