London’s most beloved independent electronic festival GALA is back and it’s bigger than ever. Returning to Peckham Rye Park from 22–24 May 2026, this tenth edition celebrates community, sound, and the power of shared dancefloors under the banner “The Floor Is Ours.”
This year’s lineup is its most ambitious yet. Friday brings a full-force celebration of UK rap, grime, garage, and bass culture, headlined by Giggs, CASISDEAD, D Double E, Novelist, and David Rodigan, alongside sets from Conducta, Todd Edwards, Benji B, and Mala. Sound system giants including Rinse FM, NTS, and Deviation will host stages, guaranteeing energy from start to finish.
Saturday dives into club culture in all its forms — from DJ Seinfeld and Logic1000 to Saoirse’s debut A/V show and appearances from Sonja Moonear, Call Super, and Detroit In Effect. Expect house, techno, queer expression, and high-voltage experimentation — the essence of modern underground sound.
Sunday wraps the weekend in warmth, groove, and euphoria. With Seth Troxler, Lil’ Louis, Todd Terje, and Gilles Peterson leading the charge, it’s a soulful celebration of the roots of dance music. The day also features rare sets from Antal, HUNEE, and Palms Trax, with Chaos In The CBD and CC:DISCO! closing out what promises to be one of GALA’s most unforgettable editions yet.
