Welcome to No Skips. This weekend fabric loads up Room One with Omar+ and Camille Doe on Friday, Dr Banana closes out five consecutive weeksNight Tales, and FUSE goes all day at Barking Park. Looking ahead, Bicep is coming back. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on this week and what’s ahead.
THIS WEEK
Omar+, Camille Doe, Lu.Re, Scarlett O'Malley
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍fabric
🎫 Tickets
fabric's Room One gets properly loaded on Friday. Omar+ heads the bill alongside Camille Doe and Lu.Re. The kind of lineup that rewards turning up early and staying until close. 1,400 interested on RA — book before it goes.
Dr Banana Residency — All Night Long
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍Night Tales
🎫 Tickets Here
Five Fridays in May, and this is the last one. Dr Banana all night at Night Tales is exactly what it sounds like — consistent, no-nonsense, and reliable. The quiet pick of the Friday.
FUSE Open Air
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍High Lights, Barking Park
🎫 Tickets Here
FUSE takes over Barking Park for its annual open air. The lineup reads like a who's who of contemporary techno and house: PARAMIDA, Ryan Elliott, Fumiya Tanaka, Kerri Chandler, tINI, Traumer, Apollonia. This one is sold out, but if you've got a ticket it should be one of the days of your summer. If not, the After Dark leg continues at The Cause from nightfall.
Phonox x Jumbi: CIRCULATE with Laurence Guy, Rahaan, DJ Fett Burger, Heléna Star - Day & Night
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍Phonox
🎫 Tickets
Day and night. Laurence Guy, Rahaan, DJ Fett Burger, and Heléna Star across a Phonox and Jumbi double. Fett Burger alone makes this worth it. One of the better Saturday packages in a weekend full of options.
WHAT’S ON: BICEP
Bicep Live
🗓 26 November | 📍Royal Albert Hall
🎫 Tickets Here
Bicep's first live show in three years, returning with brand new material after their CHROMA and TAKKUUK studio periods. New music meets the full immersive production at one of the UK's most storied venues. The last time they did London, they sold out Alexandra Palace back to back.
THE BOOTH
CamelPhat ft. Josh Gigante & Kuuda — So Good
Melodic house that earns its name without trying too hard. The kind of track that sounds inevitable rather than constructed, which is CamelPhat's whole thing when they get it right. Drop it at the mid-point of any open-air set this weekend and watch the room lift.

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.
Late-night spending patterns are shifting across the city.
A Friday at half past eleven in central London no longer looks like it did in 2019. The night buses are quieter, the kebab queues are shorter, and a meaningful slice of late-night spend that used to flow through Soho and Shoreditch has migrated to flats in Hackney, Lewisham, and Walthamstow, where the cost-of-living squeeze has rerouted what people do after midnight. The shift isn't total. The weekend still exists, but it's visible, and it explains why promoters are pushing earlier start times and day-party formats harder than ever.
