Following two sold-out runs since its debut in 2015, 51st State Festival is set to return to London’s Trent Park on 5th August with an unrivalled line-up celebrating the intricate and uplifting roots of house music. With sharper sound systems, state of the art production and an improved VIP experience, 2019 is set to lay its own milestone in the annals of dance music history.

Eastern Electrics Festival
