Skepta Announces Big Smoke Festival for Summer 2024
The inaugural edition for his one-day music festival.
Skepta has officially announced his inaugural Big Smoke Festival for Summer 2024. The British artist is slated to be curating the full line-up for the one-day, two-stage festival.
Set to take place in Southeast London’s Crystal Palace Park in July 2024, Skepta has already announced that one of the stages will be hosted by his record label Más Tiempo. Not only will the rapper himself be performing, making it his only U.K. performance for next year, but he teased fans on an Instagram Live, that there is plenty of acts to expect from it. During the Live he said, “I’m gassed to finally announce that Big Smoke Festival is official…I’m so excited, it’s been a wild one to do this. I just want to say thank you to all the supporters, it’s been a couple years that you didn’t see me on a stage…I know a lot of people have been wondering when they’ll see Skepta at a festival and I really wanted to save all that energy and put it into something that was for us, by us.” He discussed the layout of the shows, “There’s going to be a live stage with all your favourite acts – anyone you know that’s affiliated with Skepta. There’ll be a live stage on one side and the Más Tiempo stage which will also be a full lineup. I might bust up one stage, fly over to the other one and link with Jammer. It’s gonna be crazy.”
Ticket sales begin on December 1 online.
