Field Day has announced that it will move to a new location in North London for 2019.
After upping sticks from Victoria Park to South London’s Brockwell Park in 2018, it will relocate once to North London’s Meridian Water next summer.
The new location is situated on a former gas works next to Tottenham Marshes, and offers a ten-acre site comprised of four giant, interlinked warehouses, the largest of which boasts a capacity of 7500.
Although the line-up for next year is yet to be revealed, 2018’s edition saw performances from the likes of Loyle Carner, Erykah Badu and Charlotte Gainsbourg.
Luke Huxham, Field Day’s Festival Director, said: “2019 will mark the start of a new chapter for Field Day and a completely new type of festival for London. This new site will allow us to break down the restrictions that London festivals are normally faced with and deliver an unrivalled experience.
“It’s hugely exciting to be working with such a pioneering council, who support our ideas and are focused on creating a new cultural hub for London. We can’t wait to unveil more of our plans in the coming weeks”.
The festival also sees Field Day partnering with Enfield Council – who are heading up a 20-year regeneration of the Meridian Water area to transform into a cultural hub for nightlife, music, theatre and cinema.
