Taking place at Highbury Fields on Saturday 28 July between 11am and 4pm, Go Islington is the borough’s leading celebration of sport, music and dance.

Finsbury Park RFC will be dusting off the boots and playing a game of tag rugby against Islington Police Warthogs RFC this weekend at the Go Islington Festival.

With Finsbury Park RFC having trained on Tuesday's and Thursday's at Highbury Fields for two weeks in the build up to the event, we'll be looking forward to putting a marker down in a good spirited game of tag.

The game will be open for anyone to play - new players, old players, first timers and veterans. So come along if you fancy a run about.

This will be the 6th annual Islington Go festival and the now well established Islington event will be featuring...
