Ninja Tune’s Amon Tobin, Russian rave band Little Big, drum & bass veterans Ed Rush and Audio (as Killbox), techno titan Rebekah and ’90s
Since 2003 BangFace has cultivated a safe, friendly, fun-first party that courts silliness with the utmost seriousness.
It has grown from an intimate word of mouth event in London for art school oddballs into an international community of die-hard fans and artists.
BangFace has hosted stages at Glade Festival, Glastonbury and Dour in Belgium, as well as several events in Holland in addition to its regular club nights at Electrowerkz.
Every event is soundtracked by a singular Neo-Rave explosion of acid, jungle, rave hardcore, drum & bass, breakcore, bass, techno and electronica.
In 2008 BangFace introduced the BangFace Weekender, an annual weekend getaway like no other, which has been based at Southport Holiday Park since 2015.
Aphex Twin, Leftfield, Jeff Mills and The Orb have all headlined previous editions alongside unique comeback shows from ‘90s acts like Snap!, The Vengaboys, 808 State, N-Joi and SL2.
For the 10th edition of the ultimate UK rave weekender, prepare for:
- hardcore and hard drum & bass from Holland
- breakcore from France’s longest-serving breakcore label Peace Off
- bassline from Sheffield crew Off Me Nut
- jungle from Remarc and Bristol party Lemtek
- booty bass from DJ Assault and Otto Von Schirach
- PC Music weirdness from GFOTY
- Spinee and Danny L Harle
- blistering techno from Manni Dee
- Clouds and [KRTM]
- more drum & bass from Mollie Collins and
Billain - an a/v spectacular from Max Cooper
- a revival group that’ll make you want to say “way-ooh, way-ooh!”
- a special tribute to the UK’s most influential rave label, Production House, via The House Crew and Acen’s first set in 15 years!
There’s also gonna be tons of inflatables, BFTV (BangFace’s own 24 hour TV station), a fancy dress competition with special guest judges, an opening and closing ceremony hosted BangFace residents, a pool party, amusement arcades, go-karting, trampolines, and much much more.
And it wouldn’t BangFace without its regular cast of disciples: Luke Vibert, Hellfish, The DJ Producer, Mark Archer, Ceephax Acid Crew and a long-awaited reunion of Shitmat’s infamous Wrong Music collective, reformed especially for BangFace Weekender 2019.
Join us for the last Neo-Rave explosion before Brexit!
