Victoria Park is a large park in the East End of London, within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, and about a mile south of the London Olympic Park, and adjoining the Regent's Canal. At one time it contained a lido, replacing the previous swimming pond. It as also the scene for open-air speeches, similar to Speakers' Corner in Hyde Park.
