Skiddle is taking over Shoreditch from Wednesday 22nd to Saturday 25th of February, hosting a one-off pop-up shop that'll get you very excited for the coming festival season ahead. Titled 'More Than A Ticket Shop', the four-day event will highlight the ways in which Skiddle supports the events industry in general, outside of selling tickets, whilst shining the spotlight on a handful of our collaborators.

Each day will focus on industry-led initiatives, as well as the talent and festivals that are set to be a growing force in the events world, this year and beyond. Set up to mimic a mini-festival, the pop-up, running out of the Industrial Event Space on Bethnal Green Road, will see a live performance from DJ Cody Currie, DJ Academy workshops and an industry panel day that will focus on topics from mental health in music and how to put on a festival.

The teams behind three of the UK's most sought-after festival events will commandeer the evenings too. Thursday 23rd February will see London-based event City Splash at the helm. It's the city's biggest celebration of reggae, dancehall, afrobeat and the culture which surrounds the genres.

Friday 24th February will be the turn of Hospitality. The renowned drum n bass label, home to respected names such as Danny Byrd, Lens and High Contrast, will bring a great line-up of acts, offering you a taste of what to expect at their festival later this year. Finally, on Saturday 25th February, Land Beyond will take charge of the venue for an evening of thrilling electronic music.

Make sure that you pop in during the day to see what other activities Skiddle have planned. There'll even be a chance to win tickets to a long list of some of the best festivals happening across the UK this Summer, amongst a score of other prizes! Tickets for each day are extremely limited.
