Today the pitch is still being used and wondered how long does it take to get it ready for the new season.
Especially as the first home friendly is six weeks today.
Any grass experts out there?

No idea but assume that the appropriate expertise is involved. Probably not too much involved as newly laid last season.

From looking at this afternoon's photos, the main thing the pitch needs is water.
I expect once the community usage is over, that will be used in abundance

What about the Summer Music Festival in 3/4 weeks? Wonder if that’ll be outside on the pitch? I presume so. One for Andy to answer who is performing.

Pitch is currently under Water embargo as from last Saturday by instruction of the company doing the end of season 2 pitch renovations (same company that laid the pitch 22 months ago) which will start from Monday and inside the perimeter fence will be out of bounds to everybody for approx. 4-6 weeks after tomorrow
Summer Music Festival is taking place in the Away Fan Zone AFAIK

All I've been told is that it will take place under a "huge marquee". Bearing in mind the last day of the festival is on July 1st, I doubt very much if it will take place on the pitch, and as Robbo said, more likely in the the away fanzone (which I believe has a late licence which also makes sense).

Last day of community pitch use is today - a walking football festival. The marquees are up already in the Away fanzone and were in use yesterday as part of the London Womens 5s Football Tournament. Less than 2 weeks of pitch renovation which removes much of the top layers, and then its a few weeks of watching the grass grow as the groundsmen then make it playable for the first pre-season friendly on 15th July.

If the pitch is to be relayed / worked on. Will there be a camera installed to show progress of work. As was installed last time?

That really surprises me. Basically going back from scratch by the look of it.
