Josh Baker, KETTAMA, and Prospa have sold out three consecutive nights at Finsbury Park for July 2–4, 2027, moving 135,000 tickets and setting a new benchmark for UK dance music. The trio become only the second headline act after Drake to sell out three nights at the North London venue.

Embrace LDN Makes Its Debut

The three dates anchor the first edition of Embrace LDN, a new festival covering house, rave, garage, techno, and breakbeat. Josh Baker b2b KETTAMA b2b Prospa will headline the opening weekend, bringing together three artists from different corners of the UK and Irish club scenes.

Baker has released tracks including "Something To Me" and "Back It Up," with sets rooted in house, minimal, and tech house. KETTAMA delivers a faster blend of house, techno, garage, and rave. Prospa, known for tracks such as "Prayer" and "Want Need Love," pull from house, breakbeat, and classic rave. Together, the booking signals the festival's focus on contemporary UK club culture.

UK Dance Music's Contrasting Fortunes

Electronic music contributed £2.47 billion to the UK economy in 2025, and the country remains one of the strongest markets for developing electronic artists. Festivals and large-scale outdoor events continue to draw substantial crowds, with millions attending UK electronic music events each year.

At the same time, the infrastructure that built those scenes is shrinking. The number of UK nightclubs has fallen 36.1% since before the pandemic. Greater London remains 15.5% below its pre-Covid level for late-night venues, and cities including Birmingham have recorded similar declines. Large events are reaching bigger audiences while many independent clubs face rising costs and closures.

From Clubs to Finsbury Park

All three artists spent years building careers through clubs, specialist events, and dance-focused festivals before reaching a booking of this scale. Baker developed You&Me and Hide&Seek Festival. KETTAMA progressed from the Galway scene into major international bookings. Prospa came through Leeds before playing some of the UK's biggest electronic events.

The 135,000 tickets sold across three nights at Finsbury Park represent one of the UK's biggest dance music bookings in recent years. Embrace LDN takes place July 2–4, 2027.
