South West Four festival, Clapham Common

Dance music luminaries Pete Tong, Sasha, Roger Sanchez and Paul Van Dyk head up an impressive bill at the South West Four festival.

The veterans of the UK's dance music scene will be supported by a stellar cast of Hernan Cattaneo, Layo and Bushwacka!, SOS, Josh Wink and John Digweed over four arenas.

Taking place on August 25th on Clapham Common, the event showcases dance music of every hue with trance, house and breakbeat all represented.

Entry is £35 for a two-day ticket, with the festival running from 12pm until 9pm.

The promoters have also organised an after-party, which begins at the Brixton Academy the minute the music stops in Clapham, and celebrates the launch of Paul Van Dyk's new album In Between.

After this the DJs and organisers will decamp to Cardiff, where a number of the acts performing will appear again at South West Four Cardiff in Coopers Field on Sunday August 26th.
