What Was That? A Pure Heroine in London? Yes, you heard it first – pop’s most poetic provocateur Lorde is returning to the Big Smoke for All Points East, headlining a magnificent paradigm of a day festival.
All Points East has seemingly forgotten that it already has London’s festival market at its fingertips; next summer, the series of day events is hitting unprecedented levels of anticipation.
The Victoria Park situated heavyweight have already announced that Tyler, the Creator will be headlining a Friday/Saturday double bill on the late August Bank Holiday weekend – bringing the likes of Dijon, Turnstile, Mariah the Scientist and Baby Keem along for the party – as well as Deftones being joined by Amyl and The Sniffers, Idles and JPEGMAFIA for a fiery show the Sunday (23rd) before. There’s no stopping there, though – perhaps this is the biggest announcement yet.
Fresh from the release of her acclaimed fourth studio album, Virgin, and the opening secret set at Glastonbury, New Zealand’s most famous singer-songwriter Lorde is headlining All Points East on Saturday 22nd August. She will be joined by a plethora of pop’s most progressive and performative players – from dance queen PinkPantheress to Swedish sensation Zara Larsson; from soon-to-be-superstars 2hollis, Rose Gray and Audrey Hobert to cult favourites Oklou and ML Buch.
It truly is a mesmerising line-up, one that we are already buzzing for. So, with tickets going on general sale on Thursday 20th November, you know what to do – set a reminder and grab yours before it’s too late. Head here for more.
