All Points East 2022 - line-up, how to get there and how to get tickets

All Points East returns to London this month, with an exceptional line up of international artists joining some British favourites, making it one of the festivals of the summer.

Taking place once again at Victoria Park, the festival runs for six days across two weekends and sees the return of Australian psych-rockers Tame Impala and krautrock pioneers Kraftwerk.

With an Indian summer currently forecast throughout the month of August and Covid restrictions no longer present, the festival may reach its 40,000 capacity.

It looks to be one of the highlights of the British festival calendar, and for Londoners it’s all on your front doorstep.

What is All Points East Festival?

All Points East held its first event in 2018, across six days over the late May/early June period.

Its inaugural event saw headliners LCD Soundsystem, The xx, Bjork, Catfish and The Bottlemen, The National and Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds all perform at Victoria Park.

In its short history, the festival has won Line-Up of the Year at the UK Festival Awards in 2018 and Best Festival at the Music Week Awards 2019.

When does All Points East Festival take place?

All Points East takes place on August 19 and 20 2022 and then four days from August 25 to August 28.

Full set times will be announced shortly on All Points East’s website and through the official All Points East app on Google Play and Apple Store.
