WAH Drumsheds 2026: Wilkinson leads 40+ drum and bass heavyweights

Worried About Henry's back at Drumsheds for another heavyweight drum and bass festival. If you're after a day-long immersion in fast breaks, rolling basslines and proper dancefloor energy, this is it.

What's on

Saturday 7 November 2026, noon to 10.30 p.m. Wilkinson headlines a bill of 40+ drum and bass artists across Drumsheds' industrial warehouse space. Expect the full spectrum: liquid, neurofunk, jump-up, tech step—all the subgenres that make the scene tick.

The vibe

Drumsheds is purpose-built for this. Cavernous, high-ceilinged, multiple rooms and a sound system that actually does the music justice. It's sweaty, it's tribal, it's exactly what a drum and bass festival should feel like. Expect a proper mixed crowd—dedicated heads, curious newcomers, and everyone in between.

Getting tickets

Standard festival day-ticket pricing applies. Grab tickets direct through the usual routes—expect them to shift fairly quickly given Drumsheds' capacity and the lineup. Book early if you're serious about it.

Drumsheds is in Hackney Marshes, North London. We've curated a selection of hotels within easy reach of the venue below, ranging from budget-friendly to more comfortable options.
