Concluding five sun soaked weeks of Hackney Wick’s Kopparberg Urban Forest, this Wednesday electro-funk legends Chromeo will take to the stage to kick off the final week in style.

Starting the week with a bang, the Montreal-born duo will entertain crowds with a fun-filled DJ set of infectious tunes that we dare you not to dance to. Expect big hitters from a back catalogue including tracks such as ‘Sexy Socialite’, ‘Hot Mess’ and ‘You’re so Gangsta’.

Following Chromeo’s fancy footwork and maintaining the high-energy of Kopparberg Urban Forest on Thursday will be The Cuban Brothers with their jaw-dropping b-boy action and riotous comedy.

The rest of the week will be headlined by pop-infused band Citizens!, dance DJs The Date, Josef Salvat and Sweden’s own dreamy sensation, Summer Heart who will bring Kopparberg Urban Forest to a fitting close on Sunday 12^th July.
