A summer of music

The SunSets Festival takes over Meridian Quays on the Greenwich Peninsula on Saturday July 30. Bringing the spirit of the beach to the SE10 waterfront – literally, complete with golden sand – the itinerant festival’s tried and true mix of chilled acoustic beach tunes and upbeat house and electronica has livened up party spots the world over, from Ibiza to Australia.

In London, Carnival legend Norman Jay MBE is spinning house and more as day turns into night, supported by Crazy P Soundsystem, Nightmares on Wax, Capital Xtra’s Coco Cole and ‘drum king’ Shovell. Robin Schulz headlines the second stage, with Felix Jaehn, Sam Veldt, The Him and Riki Inocente.

Plus transform yourself with Corona cocktails, beach games, body painting, a sun-worshipping parade and an art installation that you’re encouraged to help create yourself – be brave!

Corona takes over Shoreditch’s hip street-food and music space Red Market for an eclectic night headlined by dance giants Groove Armada, with Bill Brewster – one of the most versatile and resourceful DJs in the game – providing main support, plus Pete Herbert warming things up from 3pm.
