Blood Orange will play at Southwark Park.
Get ready to dance from day into night. RALLY Festival 2026 has announced that its music event will be curated and headlined by Blood Orange. The festival kicks off on 29 August 2026 at Southwark Park in London.
Now in its fourth edition, RALLY Festival is a one-day celebration of music, arts and culture, inspired by DIY culture and grassroots movements. The festival aims to bring communities together and showcase the best of London’s creative scene. Running from 11.30am to 10.30pm, it promises a full day of live music, performances, and fun in the park.
Dev Hynes – better known as Blood Orange – will bring his signature fusion of synth-funk, experimental beats and songwriting to the stage. Born in Ilford, he performs as Lightspeed Champion and previously played in the band Test Icicles. Over his career, Hynes has written, produced and performed with a range of artists. The list includes the Chemical Brothers, Solange, Kylie Minogue, Tei Shi and Britney Spears.
Now based in New York, Blood Orange released his first album in six years over the summer. Essex Honey features collaborations with Lorde, Naomi Scott, Zadie Smith, Mustafa the Poet and Brendan Yates. The album has received critical acclaim and offers fans a rare opportunity to see him perform live in London. Plus, the festival will include a curated line-up of artists – we’re hoping that his set features some of the collaborations from the latest album.
