The organisers behind landmark festival Coachella have announced they’re to run a new ten day festival in London. All Points East will take over Victoria Park, Hackney, from May 25 to June 3 in 2018, and managed by the Coachella creative team, it will feature a diverse range of alternative music.
The ten day event will be crowned by a three day paid-for festival, with daily headliners. Those will include The xx, who will open the festival on May 26, and other bands confirmed to play include The National, who will headline on June 2, supported by Future Islands and Warpaint. More line-up announcements are to follow.
During the interim days, a free-to-enter street food hub will celebrate the best of the London food scene, whilst comedy and outdoor film screenings will take place. Generally speaking, aside from the three day music festival, the All Points East festival site will be free-to-enter.
