Palace Bowl Presents 31 July - 16 August 2026

Saturday, August 8, 2026 - Crystal Palace Bowl, London

Hip hop sits front and centre at Crystal Palace Bowl on 8 August 2026 as Nas & The Roots top a stacked Palace Bowl Presents bill. Their collaborative set pairs live band dynamics with classic rap catalogues, while J. Period Live Mixtape Feat Black Thought threads turntablist flair and lyrical dexterity through the evening. Yasiin Bey adds another chapter of thoughtful hip hop, contrasting with Benny The Butcher’s harder-edged US style. Sasha Keable and Nia Smith bring R&B-inflected perspectives from the UK, rounding out a lineup that captures multiple strands of rap and adjacent soul on a single outdoor stage.
