Hip-hop star Loyle Carner took to the stage at All Points East for the festival’s second night

All Points East has returned to Victoria Park in East London for its seventh edition. The annual music festival kicked off on Friday (August 16) with Canadian singer and DJ Kaytranada headlining.

The first leg of the ten-day event concluded yesterday (August 18) with American singer-songwriter Mitski taking to the stage. Four days of free community activities are now underway, before three more headline shows take place this weekend.

Looking back on the first weekend, Saturday seems to have been a particularly successful night, packed with exciting performances. English hip-hop star Loyle Carner, behind the rap hits “Ottolenghi” and “Cray Dream”, was on top of the All Points East stage.
