Junction 2 - First Names Announced for 2017

Festival Crowd Header

As the second chapter of Junction 2 takes shape, organisers reveal names of the first headline acts confirmed to perform at Boston Manor Park on Saturday 10th June 2017.

Setting the bar impeccably high from the start with Adam Beyer, Ben Klock, Chris Liebing and Daphni all set to join ranks.

In addition, two new stages will be woven into Junction 2's unique landscape, taking the total number to five. The new arenas open up spaces to showcase fresh sounds across a broader spectrum of electronic music whilst keeping the overall ethos of the festival.  

The first of the new areas is already deep in development and is looking like a serious contender to rival the space under the bridge, while the second is primed to showcase new talent and breakthrough sounds, bringing new blood to the line up housed in a hidden enclave deep in the woods.

The first names have been released and topping the list for the second edition is the one and only Adam Beyer, the driving force behind Drumcode and Junction 2 partner. Adam will be joined by Berghain stalwart Ben Klock, uncompromising techno deviant Chris Liebing, and the inimitable Daphni aka Caribou's Daniel Snaith.

 

The colossal stature of the first lineup announcement, and intriguing plans for developing the site, provide a tantalising glimpse of things to come in 2017, as Junction 2 sets out to create a new precedence for electronic music festivals in London.
