Over the weekend lottery styled scratch cards were distributed around London suggesting that Aphex Twin will play at the eleventh edition of Field Day at Victoria Park in Hackney. This morning Field Day confirmed rumours and officially announced that Aphex Twin will headline new stage ‘The Barn’ on Saturday 3rd June 2017.
Aphex Twin last played in London at the Millennium Dome for The Warehouse Project back in 2009 alongside Leila, The Wisp, Luke Vibert and Rephlex DJs. It is fair to say that his forthcoming live performance at Field Day is an event that we will not be missing out on.
Field Day detailed that he will play a rare and exclusive two hour set, within a gigantic hanger-like construction with a state of the art high-powered sound system and one of the most technologically advanced lighting rigs around.
Tickets for Field Day go on sale 9am Thursday 1st December, available here and more information via the Field Day website.
