Creekside Festival announces UK Garage favourite Wookie and renowned electronic DJ, Jossy Mitsu to headline the South East London gathering in celebration of the much loved community radio station, record label and hub, AAJA’s 5th birthday. Local friends and communities join for a unique, day to night gathering that will take place on Saturday 2 September, across multiple venues in Deptford, South East London. The final release of tickets are £20 and are on sale now here.

Wookie is a veteran and main fixture within the late 90s and early 00s local London scene and although he has had continued success, it will be a long awaited UKG live performance for festival goers, and absolutely deemed to be unforgettable at the AAJA Snake Pit. Across the way in Deptford, Jossy Mitsu will host a vibrant set of eclecticism and energy on the dancefloor – as a young, global, sensation, this one will be unmissable.

The Creekside Festival itself is a natural progression from what AAJA has strived for and achieved over the past five years. Championing local artists and nurturing homegrown collectives. Following AAJA’s huge story of resilience following the global pandemic and displacement from their first home, the need to gather couldn’t come sooner. Creekside invites the local community, long term supporters, and big time electronic music fans to join them to enjoy the very best of hyperlocal, underground music from DJs and presenters across a wide array of electronic music all day, and all night, with a sprinkling of headliners to top it off.

Creekside Festival will take place across 10 independent music venues in Deptford inc. AAJA’s very own and brand new location – The AAJA Snake Pit & AAJA Basement. Joining them will be their local venue neighbours Artworks Courtyard, Buster Mantis, Endeavour, Isla Ray, Little Faith, Stocktons, The Birds Nest, and Villagers. Food vendors available on the day will be Albert’s Fireball Street Kitchen, Jerk Off, Yeast Brothers & more.

Each venue, an intimate space, will play host to a set of crews thoughtfully curated by AAJA including party hosts themselves – AAJA, creative community broadcast platform and event space. Threads Radio, previously broadcasting out of The Cause in Tottenham, radio station & international platform. Simply Sensational, A collective of friends converting a series of private parties into a unique new events brand.
