The Cause returns for its annual Summer Festival, bringing a diverse selection of international artists and homegrown talent under one roof. On Saturday, August 30th, expect a genre-defying soundtrack traversing house, techno, disco, and beyond, delivered across expertly curated dance floors. Spearheading the proceedings, the legendary Body & Soul collective—Danny Krivit, Francois K, and Joe Claussell—touch down for a rare UK appearance, promising a masterclass in musical communion.
Alongside the mainstay trio, Lena Willikens brings her forward-leaning selections while Ivan Smagghe and Free Zing collide for a genre-fluid journey of their own. Chez de Milo weaves deep grooves and subtle textures. Berlin’s Elli Acula injects fresh energy with high-octane, rave-inspired sets, joined by the inimitable Neil Landstrumm on live hardware duties.
Josh Caffé, Hannah Holland, and Klose One channel their signature London sound, making a fitting homecoming to The Cause. Expanding on the festival’s eclectic ethos, Paula Tape, renowned for her percussive flair, joins Cormac’s emotive selections and Logan Fisher’s genre-spanning cuts, with Bali’s PNNY crew rounding off the bill. Uniting heavyweight talent with a signature intimate energy, The Cause: Summer Festival cements itself as a highlight in the UK’s late summer calendar—converging community and heady sounds deep into the night.
