Further acts have been announced as Finsbury Park prepares to host the three-day Wireless Festival this year.

The 20th edition of the UK’s biggest urban music event broke ticket sale records when it was announced that Canadian hip-hop star Drake would headline all three nights.

This year’s event sold out within minutes on the back of a line-up that includes Burna Boy, PARTYNEXTDOOR, Summer Walker, Vybz Kartel and Boy Better Know.

Nearly 150,000 fans will be going to the north London park over the three days to see the likes of Popcaan, GRAMMY Award-winning Leon Thomas, multi-platinum BigXThaPlug, Lancey Foux, Nemzzz, Spice, Masicka and more.

Some new artists to Wireless include Nigerian artist ODUMODUBLVCK and UK standouts Darkoo and Odeal.

Up and coming R&B star Nippa will also be in attendance, alongside a fresh wave of homegrown underground talents including Chy Cartier, kwn, Len, YT and Skeete.

In 2023 promoters Festival Republic signed a five year deal to host the festival – despite opposition from local campaign group The Friends of Finsbury Park.

They have complained over noise, anti-social behaviour and drug-taking at the event; However Haringey Council claims that Wireless raises “significant income” towards the park’s upkeep.

As part of the deal Festival Republic ran another weekend of huge gigs in the park with Stereophonics, Fontaines D.C and Slayer playing last weekend.
