MUSIC
From the outdoor Main Stage to the wooded glade that hosts the inspired madness of Sika Studios, NASS’ eight stages cover all bases, musical tastes, genres and vibes. The air inside cavernous warehouses is made thick with the low frequencies of drum and bass, dubstep, jungle and house. Whilst the defiant sounds of reggae, hip-hop and grime spring up across the site.
NASS is back with a 200+ strong line-up including headliners Headie One, Loyle Carner and AJ Tracey. Plus, there’ll be huge festival sets from Mabel, Becky Hill, Wilkinson presents Cognition, Ocean Wisdom, Raye, Ella Eyre, Ray BLK, Ben Nicky, JME Presents Grime MC FM and more. Plus, hot on the heels of mega Glastonbury performances, fans will be treated to sets from Bad Boy Chiller Crew, Sub Focus, Kurupt FM, Andy C, SHY FX, Wilkinson, Harriett Jaxxon, Watch The Ride and SASASAS.
