Drake to headline all three nights of Wireless Festival

Canadian rapper Drake has been confirmed as the headliner for all three nights of this year’s Wireless Festival, taking place at London’s Finsbury Park from July 11-13. Each night will feature a unique set from the artist, marking his first UK performance in six years. The announcement follows Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX halftime show, reigniting tensions between the two rappers. Lamar, along with SZA, is also set to perform in the UK this summer. The lineup also includes Burna Boy, Partynextdoor, Summer Walker, and Vybz Kartel, with more acts to be revealed. Wireless Festival, promoted by Festival Republic, secured a deal with Haringey Council in 2023 to keep Finsbury Park as its home until at least 2027. Presale tickets open at 12:00 local time on Tuesday, with general sales starting the next day. Last year’s festival featured Nicki Minaj, 21 Savage, J Hus, and Doja Cat.
