Drake will be headlining all three nights of the Wireless Festival at London’s Finsbury Park from Friday, July 11 to Sunday, July 13.
The five-time Grammy award winner will perform three different setlists as the festival celebrates its 20th anniversary. This will mark Drake’s first performance in the UK in six years.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “It’s been months in the making and initially no one thought they could pull it off, but Drake is all signed on to headline all three days of Wireless.
“Bosses are naturally overjoyed and expect tickets to sell out in record time.
“Exact set lists are still to be worked out but one idea that has been passed about is that Drake will perform some of his albums in full for the first time.”
Friday’s lineup will feature Drake and PartyNextDoor, who collaborated on the album ‘$ome $exy $ongs 4 U’. On Saturday, Drake will be joined by The Mandem on stage. Sunday’s closing act will include Burna Boy and Vybz Kartel alongside Drake.
Drake, also known as Aubrey Graham, previously headlined Wireless in 2012 and is known as the audience’s most requested act according to the festival organizers.
The announcement will place the spotlight on Drake’s ongoing rap beef with Kendrick Lamar – who also has his own UK shows scheduled for July.
Tickets for Wireless go on sale on Wednesday (19.02.25) and more acts for the weekend are set to be announced in due course.
