'Out of tune and out of key': Covent Garden's buskers fight back against bid to silence them
Performers say Westminster council move to enforce licences and restrict acts' volume, staging and props threatens a centuries-old London tradition.
Westminster councillors will meet to discuss tightening the regulation of buskers. A system of licensing introduced in April 2021 has not stemmed the flow of complaints about noise and disturbance.
Most of the acts in Covent Garden don't have Westminster council’s perform licence; instead they self-regulate under the aegis of the Covent Garden Street Performers Association. They're proud of being part of a tradition that dates back centuries, at least to the days of Samuel Pepys and probably much further. They say Westminster is targeting them unfairly, as most complaints, they say, concern musicians in Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus.

'Out of tune and out of key': Covent Garden's buskers fight back against bid to silence them
Performers say Westminster council move to enforce licences and restrict acts' volume, staging and props threatens a centuries-old London tradition.
Westminster councillors will meet to discuss tightening the regulation of buskers. A system of licensing introduced in April 2021 has not stemmed the flow of complaints about noise and disturbance.
Most of the acts in Covent Garden don't have Westminster council’s perform licence; instead they self-regulate under the aegis of the Covent Garden Street Performers Association. They're proud of being part of a tradition that dates back centuries, at least to the days of Samuel Pepys and probably much further. They say Westminster is targeting them unfairly, as most complaints, they say, concern musicians in Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus.
