Do you like BBQ? Do you like drum and bass? Feel like heading over to the UK? Well, Hospitality has the event for you with Hospitality in the Park. The event will take place on September 24, 2016 at Fisbury Park in London, England, and will bring together all the heads for a full day of bass laden fun.
Hospital Records is one of the biggest independent record labels for drum and bass. Established in 1996 by Tony Colman and Chris Gross, it has grown immensely to offer up some of the best drum and bass selections to fiending ears. Hospital Records has also crafted events under their Hospitality brand. These events are put together with TLC, and Hospitality in the Park will be no different. This will be the first outdoor event that will offer a 360 degree celebration of the music that gets your heart palpitating.
Plan to be in drum and bass heaven for the entire day as the event will run from 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Five stages of drum and bass await you. So far, four of the stages have been named: Hospitality, Rampage, Dub Phizix & Strategy’s Well Good Do, and Soul In Motion Meets Med School. If the music isn’t enough to entice you, there will be many different dining options to replenish your energy after you throw down to drum and bass.
Besides BBQ, various eats will be available from the Cheesetruck to cheesesteaks, from Earl’s to twice battered fried chicken from Mother Clucker, to burritos from Luardos. Other food vendors include Le Bun, Mamas Jerk, Smokestak, Voodoo Ray’s, Popdogs, and Chip Chip Hooray.
Attendees may understandably want to bring their whole family to indulge. While the park typically brings all ages, Hospitality in the Park will be for 18+ only. If you are looking to imbibe, the bars will use a challenge 25 system, meaning that if you look under 25 you will be asked to provide a valid photo ID to prove you are over 18.
Squaring away your plans at this point? Wondering how you will get to this amazing event? If you are unfamiliar with the area, it’s important to know that Finsbury Park doesn’t have much free parking available as it sees a lot of pedestrian traffic, so event organizers suggest using public transportation to travel to Finsbury Park. There is a nearby station that is across the road from the park entrance, served by the Piccadilly and Victoria lines. This station also has trains going to and from Kings Cross. Go to http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/ or http://www.tfl.gov.uk/ to plan your route to an event that will surely be one for the books.

I was listening to electronic dance music without even knowing it when I was listening to Jock Jams in the 90s. Fast forward to my senior year in high school and I had discovered Fatboy Slim. I have been listening to edm ever since and love writing about new sounds, good sounds, and the music that makes us move.
