Ghana Party in the Park, one of the UK's biggest celebrations of Ghanaian culture, was brought to an abrupt end on 1 August after a crowd surge at the entrance left 23 people needing medical assistance.
According to reports, the incident unfolded shortly after 6pm at Copthall Playing Fields in Barnet, north London, when a temporary gate closure following a small fire led to overcrowding as attendees attempted to enter the festival.
