London festival Field Day has announced that it will be moving south of the river to Brockwell Park next year.

After a number of years in different locations, the festival spent the last four summers in its spiritual home of Victoria Park under the All Points East umbrella, but has now joined the Brockwell Live series, which also features Wide Awake, Cross The Tracks and Mighty Hoopla in the Brixton park.

It will take place on Saturday, May 24 next year, with Wide Awake moving to the previous day. Festival director Mark Newton said: “Myself and the Field Day team are incredibly excited about our move to Brockwell Park and our new May date, which solidifies our place at the beginning of London’s summer.

“After four highly successful years collaborating with All Points East at Victoria Park, 2025 seemed like the ideal time to host our own standalone event again. The availability of both the new venue and date presented the perfect opportunity to do so. We look forward to working with the Brockwell Live team and joining their lineup of successful events in the park.”

Brockwell Live’s Marcus Weedon added: “We’re incredibly excited to have Field Day returning to Brockwell for 2025. The festival has been a firm favourite in London for many years and we’re looking forward to recapturing the independent nature of the event.

“With our current roster of Wide Awake, Cross The Tracks and City Splash we feel that Field Day slots into the May Bank holiday weekend perfectly, making it an unmissable date for 2025.”

Field Day 2024 was headlined by Justice, with a Rolling Stone UK review saying: “The French house duo have had a somewhat surprising second wave of relevance and popularity with new album Hyperdrama, and their extraordinary live show deserves to go down in history.”
