“Following the sell-out New Years Eve Brick Lane Block Party, we saw a real appetite to bring an element of the hedonistic Brick Lane of the past,” says Event Manager Leo Saunders.

“Old heads will remember the parties round here in the late 90s and early 2000s, and it’s great to see this coming back with a fresh new crowd.”

Also on the bill, drum ‘n’ bass legend DJ Storm will take to Werkhaus alongside Ehua, hosted by London promoters Materials Events and Rhythm Labs.

Brick Lane Block Party has a limited capacity of just 800 people. Tickets for the full 10-hour event start at £11.50, grab yours here.
