Since 2014 the people behind the iconic Cherry Cola Club in partnership with Jack Daniels and Spotify have hosted the best indoor music festival in the UK. Hackney Wonderland Music Festival has been treating London to some of the most prestigious and up and coming bands around. Always highly recommended by NME and Time Out as one of the must-go-and-see new music festivals, it is coming back this year on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th October.

2016’s incredible line up promises to be their best year yet spread across five of London’s best live music venues all within a few minutes walk from each other. Buy your festival ticket first then exchange it for a wristband there giving access to any of the venues over both days to see as many bands as you want.

Indie rockers Mystery Jets and We Are Scientists are the two main acts of Saturday night whereas singer-songwriter Lucy Rose will headline Sunday’s after the much-anticipated performance of London band Yuck. The venues hosting the East London festival are Oval Space, Mangle E8, London Fields Brewery, The Pickle Factory and Sebright Arms.
