B-BAR HOUSE LEGENDS STAGE
Back in 2001 there was a club called B-Bar in Stamford Hill Road. Many great parties were done by Tira and Sox at the time. Even though there have been different genres since then it’s time to pay tribute to the legends that the whole house music scene was built off. This year as a special new floor we bring you some of those legends like Glen Lewis, Oskido, Vinny Da Vinci, Christos, Mimi Kesaris, Durban’s Finest Tira & Sox, DJ Cndo, KingSfiso with Amenisto.
We are creating an area with its own bar, seating and that old Skool vibe of just soulful good music, it’s been a while but come play. bring your camp chairs or blankets if you you like but come chill and groove with the masters of house.
