Inverness Street Bloc Party celebrates 50 years of hip hop

This year marks the 50th anniversary of hip hop culture, so join us on Saturday 26 August as we celebrate its birthday!

Camden's family-friendly one-day event will celebrate, educate and reflect on the impact of hip hop culture over the last 50 years and its roots in Camden.

Local hip hop DJs from the Dig It Sound System will start the party with a fun warm-up for all ages.  Following this, a line-up of homegrown, established and new talent will perform, showcasing spoken word, DJing and dance, which will take us on a journey through the decades, revealing Camden’s rich history and links to this genre of music.

Guest artists include DJ Matt White, Sarah Love, and DJ 279. 

Running order on Saturday 26 August:

  • 12noon to 7pm - Inverness Street, Camden NW1
