Let the sunshine in this New Years Eve as a huge winter carnival comes to the mighty Clapham Grand, welcoming in 2012 with the largest sounds from garage to dubstep, drum and bass to bashment and hip hop to dub.

Taking over the stunning Victorian theatre for the biggest winter carnival this side of Rio are the Gentleman's Dub Club, Man Like Me, Ded Bias, The Heatwave, Plenas, Night Owl, and many more. 

The Gentleman’s Dub Club are an incredible ten-piece live band who have previously supported such acts as Madness, The Streets and Roots Manuva. Following storming performances this summer at Glastonbury, Latitude, Outlook and the Secret Garden Party, expect a journey covering everything from dub, ska and roots reggae at the Vagabondz NYE Carnival.

North London duo Man Like Me bonded through a shared love of Tricky, weed and skateboarding. Since then their combined forces have become one of the hottest musical prospects to come from the Capital. Known for their mash up of grime and indie with infectious, brazen and honest lyrics, their unorthadox style will have the Grand rocking this NYE.

Zed Bias has collaborated with everyone from Omar to Skream and is recognized as an influential figure in the emergence of dubstep. A massive renaissance in late 90’s broken beats and two-step has helped bring Zed back to the limelight, as illustrated in his recent mini mix on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 show. The Heatwave describe themselves as the UK’s number one bashment sound. They succeed to show how, with powerful compilations and mixes, that dancehall is the root of jungle, garage, grime, dubstep and funky. 

Next up, London based Plenas is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to creating bass-driven music. His debut album ‘The Long Game’ will be released on Exceptional Records next year and with an excellent live show that has already been showcased at the likes of XOYO, Plenas is an act not to be missed.

Finally, Vagabondz once again welcomes Night Owl. Having played under the Vagabondz banner up and down the country, his recent London shows at XOYO and The Egg have turned many a head; not to mention his new remix of ‘Spires’ by Shields dropping on Rinse FM earlier this year. 

With many more acts still to be announced this is one New Years party that is sure to get London sizzling.

Earlybird tickets are available through Skiddle below for £15
