Stormzy has announced his only UK show of 2023, a full-day takeover of London’s Victoria Park
The August event is in collaboration with All Points East.
Stormzy has confirmed a takeover of London’s Victoria Park next summer, which will be the rapper’s only UK performance of 2023.
Titled ‘This Is What We Mean Day’, the British grime artist will headline a line-up of “incredible artists, music, and vibes”. The event is in collaboration with All Points East, and will take place on Friday August 18th, 2023.
The full line-up for the day is currently unconfirmed, but Stormzy is set to curate a bill of acclaimed artists to warm up attendees before his headline performance. The news was announced via social media platforms with the following clip:
“I said to the team, we gotta do something bigger, something better, something different,” Stormzy recalls of the inspiration behind the new event. “We were having back-to-back meetings, bouncing ideas. Then it hit me, I started jotting down ideas thinking - live band, need a live band. August 2023, a summer time thing, outside, for the people, always for my people. So August 2023, Victoria Park, more info coming soon….This Is What We Mean Day. Hard.”
