City Splash 2025: Your First Line Up Drop

City Splash 2025 is #TheHomeOfCulture. Once again, we’ll be returning to Brockwell Park for the biggest one-day celebration of Caribbean and African culture in the world. This year it’s our fifth birthday, so obviously it’s gonna be a shutdown!

Our first wave of headliners include dancehall heavyweights Teejay and Spice, who are guaranteed to have the dance in a daze. Serial collaborators The Compozers are set to bring their Ghana-via-North-London sound to City Splash, and Jamaica’s finest Tarrus Riley and Valiant will be touching down in Brixton to bring the heat.

This year, City Splash have linked up with the crispest collectives and sound systems, all with the sole intention of keeping you on your feet this Bank Holiday Monday. The female-led movement Sisters In Dub are set to bring the positive energy and hefty rhythms, whilst soundsystem legends Iration Steppas, Rampage Sound, Channel One, and Saxon Sound will all be dishing out the deepest of vibrations. Alongside this, selecta Rebel Clash and vocalist Liam Bailey are teaming up for an all vinyl rub-a-dub set, and Pioneer, Supa D, and Coldsteps will be joined by Terminal 4 for some party-starting revelry.

Viral sensation DJ AG is making his City Splash debut, bringing the cutting edge of his wicked live streams to Brockwell Park. We’ve also brought back some familiar faces, with City Splash veterans Izzy Bossy, Shayna Marie, General Levy, and Sir DJ Corey all making appearances at the shubz of the year.

We’ve got plenty of local talent to ignite the celebrations and get you moving. From the sharp lyricism of Peckham’s Yung Sabre to the hottest dancehall selecta Vybz SR, you could be hearing the next big thing before anyone else. On top of this, the legendary reggae producer Blacker Dread will take the long walk from Tulse Hill to perform their timeless sound for all to hear. Don’t say we don’t treat you right. 

But that’s not all, we’ll also be joined by: Aleighcia Scott, Bobo Blackstar, Dankie Sounds, D Slayer, Dubwise Jamaica, Heartless Crew, Jada Pink, Jahrevelationmuzik, Mixmaster J, Ras Kwame, Seani B, and Shayna Marie.

With more names still to come, you know City Splash 2025 is the only place to be.
