Organised by the people behind Percolate and Love International festival in Croatia, mid-September’s electronic music festival Waterworks is a final chance to squeeze every last drop of festival fun out of the summer.
Initially due to expand from one day to two at its usual venue, Gunnersbury Park, the festival has been forced to rethink its set-up after delays securing planning permission for the west London park. But the show goes on! Instead it’ll be taking over east London venue The Cause for a marathon 36-hour edition that promises to be no less spectacular.
Waterworks Extended will take place across seven spaces around the industrial megaclub in the Docklands, with the same DJs playing across a mixture of indoor and outdoor rooms. The big names on the programme include Alex Kassian, babyschön, djrum, Midland and Sofia Kourtesis. That’s on top of B2Bs from Bradley Zero and Erol Alkan, Christian AB and Craig Richards, Raresh and Sonja Moonea, and OK Williams and Skee Mask, Call Super and Objekt, and Sully and Special Request.
You’ll struggle to find a festival line-up more packed with world-class selectors than this. We’d advise booking the Monday off work!
