Welcome to No Skips. Corsica closes for good this weekend. Did you ever make it? Hit reply and tell us your favourite memory from the room. We also have rounded up two key London festivals for the sumer that you’ll want to attend. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on this week and what’s ahead.
THIS WEEK
Goodbye x: Corsica Studios' Final Weekend
🗓 FRIDAY |📍Corsica Studios
🎫 Tickets Here
After 23 years, this is it. Corsica's closing series (Nothing Lasts Forever) ends this weekend with Rupture on Friday. The room is going out the way it came in: underground, raw, and built around sound first. You don't need to know the exact lineup to know this is worth showing up for.
UNLISH w/ ALISHA, Julian Fijma, Rich NXT + more
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍fabric
🎫 Tickets Here
Five rooms, proper range. ALISHA has been one of the most consistent selectors in London this year and her fabric room sets always hit differently late. Jwave, Chopper, and Rich NXT round it out for a long Friday.
Continuum: Craig Richards, DJ Nobu, Nicolas Lutz, Call Super + more
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍fabric
🎫 Tickets Here
Craig Richards' Continuum lineups are consistent because he actually programmes for the room, not the poster. DJ Masda and DJ Nobu are the headline pull here — Japanese selectors who rarely play London and who bring something completely different to the fabric floor. Bobby. and Gabrielle Kwarteng hold it down as residents.
Honey Dijon presents The Nightlife
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍FOLD
🎫 Tickets Here
Honey Dijon at FOLD is one of those bookings where the room suits the DJ perfectly. She plays long, reads the crowd well, and the sound system at FOLD is built for exactly this kind of set. Keyrah opens.
Goodbye x — Corsica Final Day
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍Corsica Studios
🎫 Tickets Here
The last day. Whatever they've booked is secondary to the fact that this version of Corsica won't exist after Sunday. Twenty-three years in Elephant and Castle, closed by the slow pressure of new developments and rising costs. It'll reopen eventually, but not as this.
WHAT’S ON: Field Day + GALA
Field Day
🗓 Sat, 23 May | 📍Brockwell Park
🎫 Tickets Here
Field Day moves to Brockwell Park this summer and the lineup lands exactly where London's crowd lives right now. Floating Points plays live. Joy Orbison, Honey Dijon, Interplanetary Criminal, Andy C with a jungle set. Four stages worth of genuine range, not just genre padding. This is an outdoor day that actually earns the hype.
GALA
🗓 Fri 22 — Sun 24 May | 📍Peckham Rye Par
🎫 Tickets Here
GALA's theme this year is The Floor Is Ours, a direct statement against the commercial creep into dance culture, and the lineup backs it up. Three days with Giggs headlining Friday alongside Mala, Or:la, and a Benji B Deviation takeover. Saturday stretches across DJ Seinfeld, Logic1000, Midland, and Saoirse. It's the independent South London festival doing exactly what it should.
THE BOOTH
Groove Armada — Love's Theme
Warm, looped, completely built for a room that's just found its second wind at 1am. The Glitterbox debut from one of UK dance music's most durable names condenses the 80s into six minutes without ever feeling like a throwback. It just sounds like someone who knows exactly what they're doing. The kind of track a good DJ pulls out and the room immediately lifts.

EDITORIAL
We had the pleasure of working with Club Culture to produce The Top London Clubs Guide using a mix of reviews and top-rated venues by you all. We’re excited for who came out ontop.
The House Against Hate free rave at Trafalgar Square this Saturday is getting serious traction online. Ben UFO, Tash LC, Shygirl, Daniel Avery, Katy B, Hot Chip, and Norman Jay on a free stage in central London. The logistics alone are remarkable. The political framing is direct: a protest rave against the current moment. Whether you're going for the music or the message, this is the one dominating feeds this week.
