On April 4, the organisers of South West Four Festival (commonly known as SW4) announced the addition of Robin Schulz, Don Diablo and Jonas Blue to an already incredible line up. The two-day long dance event, which will shake Clapham Common on August 26 and August 27, is headlined by Pendulum, Eric Prydz and Deadmau5 – and looks set to be another sellout.
In its fourteenth year, SW4 2017 will bring an incredible bill of names to South London to coincide with the August Bank Holiday weekend. Whilst over the last two years the event has seen Skrillex, The Chemical Brothers, and Faithless (to name but a few) play to 10,000 strong crowds in the heart of Clapham, this year’s lineup is an astounding who’s who of cutting edge and chart friendly electronic music. Announced on April 4, Robin Schulz, Don Diablo and Jonas Blue will play on the Saturday, which will also feature Pendulum, Hannah Wants, SIGMA, Duke Dumont and many more. That isn’t to say that the Sunday lineup is any less amazing, with Bakermat, Knife Party and Example amongst the most eye-catching names already announced to close out the festival.
Organisers promise that SW4 2017 will be bigger and better than any of its precedents, with acts performing across five different stages on the festival campus. This year will be notable for the debut of the Playaz Arena and the return of the Gallery Arena, both of which will most likely focus on up and coming electronic artists.
Intriguingly, those announced on April 4 may not be the only big names still under wraps for the Saturday. Indeed, with six headline names billed on Sunday, but only four set so far for the day before, you should expect a few more significant additions before August.
Tickets are limited at £55.50 for Sunday, and at £57.50 for Saturday. Weekend tickets are £105.
SW4 is a strictly 18+ event.
