It’s here again at last! After a long year of waiting, TDK Cross Central returns. The definitive urban event of the summer, TDK offers something to everyone, from discerning clubber to arts toff.
TDK takes place at a freight depot on a disused trade route. The canal next to it was used for transporting fish and cattle. Nowadays however, the soot and stench are replaced with clean flushing loos and a wide variety of eateries. Disco balls, swanky velvet and palm trees create a mood for mischief within the nine tantalising music spaces.
2004 was host to a fantastic line up that included British Sea Power, Erol Alkanand LCD Soundsystem. In addition to this year's talent, a cinema adds an exciting new dimension of visual art to the two day event.

Onedotzero are the guest curators for the in house cinema. Famous for producing influential and contemporary media, promotions will feature from super slick artists including Bjork, Beck and Lemon Jelly. The visuals are a perfect way to chill out, get cultured and prepare for a mind blowing night of fantastically eccentric music.
The Magic Numbers will play to the 7000 capacity main stage. Festival favourites Goldfrapp and gorgeous Grace Jones also make guest appearances. Another stage showcases new bands such as Test Icicles and Ludes. Elsewhere, club fiends can riot to the likes of Mr Scruff, X-Press 2 and rap princess Lady Sovereign.
TDK is the trendiest thing to hit London this year. Stylish, diverse and all with a wicked atmosphere, it’s the only way to spend the August bank holiday weekend.
