Queen's Yard Summer Party unveil dual after-parties ahead of 2024 event

The Hackney Wick multi-venue event will go from day-to-night with parties at Village Underground and Colour Factory

Queens Yard Summer Party has unveiled a double offering of after-parties ahead of its annual block party on Saturday (May 4).

Spread across Colour Factory and the Shoreditch-based Village Underground, the two parties will pick up from where the all-dayer ends, with the former featuring headliners Elijah & Skilliam — while Jossy Mitsu and Bluetoof, aka BLUMITSU, will be heading up the billing over in Shoreditch.

Established in 2017 by London-based promoter Percolate, the annual celebration has grown from four venue knees-up to welcoming over 180 artists to perform at 20 venues across Hackney Wick.

This year's event is set to feature sets from Julio Bashmore, ROSEY GOLD, yourboykiran, Riz La Teef and Raji Rags — as well as crew takeovers from Wigflex, Local Action Records and Alien Communications.
