The festival has been dubbed London’s best techno event, and whilst it was only founded in 2016, its popularity has steadily grown allowing the expansion of an extra day for festival goers. Spearheaded by London Warehouse Events, LWE’s influence over clubbers has gone from strength to strength, with this being the team’s biggest ever production to date. The organisers are notorious for their ambitious locations, whilst still upholding first class sound and production.
This years Junction 2 event, held at Boston Manor Park, just West of the city, had five areas to choose from; The Bridge, The Hex, The Warehouse, The Stretch and The Woods. The organisers believe that part of the success of Junction 2 is down to its incredible backdrop of Boston Manor Park. The venue itself is eclectic, including tents and open-air spots, hidden among the trees. The M4 motorway snaking overhead one of the stages, makes this a very interesting venue.
If the green field festival feel isn’t your thing, you can head into The Warehouse and immerse yourself in an industrial dance floor. LWE have an ethos of bringing quality electronic music to fans, as well as being sustainable and environmentally conscious.The organisers were tired of the abundance of inner-city festivals, which all felt a bit tired and familiar. Poor sound, boring “Big Top” formats, with the same artists on rotation, LWE wanted to create something unique. Junction 2 has proved to be just that.
