As summer lingers on, Alexandra Palace is gearing up to make the most of the remaining warm weeks by hosting a spectacular August bank holiday celebration. This year, the iconic north London venue will come alive with two sensational outdoor music events, featuring renowned DJs Gok Wan and Norman Jay. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Palace, these events promise to be the highlight of the season. Are you planning to feature any of these in your bank holiday activity round-ups?
On Saturday, August 24th, the multi-talented broadcaster and DJ Gok Wan will bring his exuberant party, Isolation Nation, to the picturesque Ally Pally Terrace. Following his triumphant, sold-out performances at the Roundhouse and KOKO, Gok is set to deliver an unforgettable experience. Joining him on the line-up are special guest Smokin Jo, along with Angel Lee, Leroy Fish, and the Mas Que Nada Bros. Attendees can look forward to an electrifying mix of soulful and uplifting house music, paired with an afternoon and evening of sunlit dancing. To complete the festive atmosphere, there will be a delectable selection of street food, refreshing ice-cold cocktails, and well-stocked bars, making for an ideal bank holiday soirée.
The festivities continue on Sunday, August 25th, as the legendary Norman Jay MBE returns to Alexandra Palace with his iconic Good Times Soundsystem bus for an all-day, open-air bank holiday party. The stage, set against the panoramic views of London from Ally Pally, will feature the famous red Routemaster bus. Norman Jay and his friends will guide attendees through a diverse musical journey encompassing house, rare groove, jazz, disco, hip-hop, and drum & bass. So, gather your friends, don your best dancing shoes, and prepare for a blissful day of summer revelry.
