Three of Britain’s most exciting new talents are announced to play the i-D Main Stage on Saturday - British poet and artist Kojey Radical, Camden-born cross-genre artist Bakar and hotly-tipped artist DWY.

Radical, who was deemed ‘London’s most unique rapper’ by The Guardian, recently sold out his headline show at London’s Roundhouse in an impressive twelve hours. Also taking the stage on Saturday is Bakar, whose music has been described as ‘scatty rock ​‘n’ roll guitar riffs, woozy electronic numbers and gentle spoken word cuts’ by The Face and counts Skepta, Elton John and Virgil Abloh as fans. South London enigmatic artist DWY will also make his first Lovebox appearance this year, with all three artists playing slots ahead of Peggy Gou, Anderson . Paak & The Free Nationals and Disclosure.

Playing the Highsnobiety Soundsystem x Bone Soda stage this year is none other than fashion icon Virgil Abloh. Joining him is an array of exciting talent including Benji B, Skinny Macho, Carista, who join already-announced Sherelle for the Friday line-up.

Other acts announced today include rising DJ Duchess, who will play a Sunday afternoon slot on the Noisey Arena. Joining Loco Dice, Waff and Mason Collective on the Rinse FM Arena is Alan Fitzpatrick, known for his high-energy, commanding techno sets.

Friday the 12th June will see Lovebox’s first Mixtape Madness Takeover. Taking the stage will be Unknown T, M1llionz, Teeway, KO, Chris Cash, 9th Street, Kilo Jugg, Rushy, Fizzler and Teezando, with a special guest headliner still to be announced. DJs to take the stage will be DJ GBE and Selecta Suave. Kingsly Okyere, Co-founder of Mixtape Madness said, ‘Mixtape Madness presents to you our Lovebox takeover stage 2020.

About Lovebox Festival:

Lovebox Festival is a 3-day music event which takes place in June at London’s Gunnersbury Park. It brings in thousands of festival-goers each year to see artists from the worlds of house, techno, pop, hip-hop, R&B and grime.

Founded in 2002 as an East London club night, Lovebox has since grown from an underground cultural movement to one of the UK’s biggest and most exciting music events of the year. The past 18 years have seen Lovebox cement its reputation for curating incredible, genre-spanning line-ups that include both household names and up-and-coming talent.

The festival has seen fantastic sets from acts including Childish Gambino, Blondie, Grace Jones, Wu-Tang Clan, Snoop Dogg, Frank Ocean, Lana Del Rey, LCD Soundsystem, Skepta plus electronic music names such as Plan B, Peggy Gou, Diplo, Annie Mac, Major Lazer, Simian Mobile Disco and more.

Last year saw another successful festival with standout performances from Solange, Chance The Rapper, Lizzo, slowthai, BROCKHAMPTON, J Hus, Giggs and more.
