The summertime has finally arrived (how long it will last is anyone’s guess!), so let’s all get out there and make the most of it. While most of the nation will no doubt be raving it up at Glastonbury, the rest of us have a plentiful supply of events and shindigs to get our teeth into here in the capital city. So here’s a guide to some of the best happenings over the weekend, in our humble opinion…
Friday
Watergate Worldwide Affairs at XOYO
The infamous Berlin club joins forces with one of its London counterparts for this one-night only takeover. Anyone heading to this party is in for a massive treat, with Guillame & The Coutu Dumonts performing live along with some of Watergate’s finest residents.
Guillame & The Coutu Dumonts (live) | Marco Resmann | Ruede Hagelstein | Matthias Meyer |
Kurv at EGG London
EGG London never fails to impress with every weekend that passes and this Saturday is no exception with the mighty deep house trio Chasing Kurt working their magic with a live set. Then we have US act Walker & Royce plus the cult hero, Sable Sheep. Boom!

Home – RPR Soundsystem at Studio 338
Romania’s trio of masters descend on London with their soundsystem. This is actually one of the few times the three men have appeared outside of fabric, their traditional home.. so quite a coup for Studio 338. Guaranteed to be one of the best events this weekend, no doubt.

Saturday
Work The Box with Jef K at Rhythm Factory
French don Jef K steps up at the Rhythm Factory in Whitechapel for this party. Jef is the man behind Silver Network and has countless classics under his belt, with a long-standing history in Paris. Should be a quality night.

Warm with Mark E at the Bussey Building
Fresh from the release of his album ‘Product Of Industry’ Mark E heads to London for the always reliable Warm, at the Bussey Building in Peckham. We can’t wait for this one, Mark E is a true master and Warm know how to put on a quality soiree. Should be a big one.
