The event was aimed at young British Muslims to help create a platform for them to discuss issues such as Islamophobia, ISIS and the war in Syria.
Young people, police, teachers, faith leaders and Muslims from the world of entertainment gathered at the Muslim Youth Festival to explore views on what it means to be a Muslim today.
Imam, Dr Mohammed Fahim of South Woodford Mosque said, "Young British Muslims, irrespective of their ethnicities or gender, should feel proud to live in a country like Britain which gives them equal opportunities and permits them to practice their religion without any fear or oppression."
