Ahead of its fifth anniversary on Friday 29th and Saturday 30th September, boutique house and techno festival The Social has now added a host of names to its 2017 line-up. With an already stellar selection of names announced during phase one – including The Martinez Brothers, Black Coffee, Guy Gerber and Carl Cox – phase two sees the likes of Nina Kraviz and Heidi join a fellowship of leading lights from the underground scene. Joining Nina in the brand new Fabric hosted stage ‘The Barn’ will be Terry Francis and Berghain resident, Function.
With Resistance also announced to host the Meadow stage, Monika Kruse and Tristan Ingram will join proceedings, with fellow craft masters Santé & Sidney Charles, Bill Patrick and Nick Curly set to play the brand new Caravan stage – the festival’s outdoor fixture which will be fitted with state of the art production and sound. Local lad Rob Cockerton and techno favourite Spencer Parker complete the phase two line-up, joining already confirmed acts such as Sasha & John Digweed as The Social Festival elevates itself to one of this year’s most highly anticipated events.
Located a stones throw away from London at the beautiful Kent County Showground, The Social is brought together by Saved Records, the independent music label of renowned house and techno DJ Nic Fanciulli. The Maidstone local has been bringing credible dance music to Kent over the years through the much-loved Saved parties.
