25–26 July Near Horley (Reigate and Banstead)

Not every listing gets a golden ticket

We don't just scoop up anything with a £0 next to it. These picks still need to be nearby, useful, and properly explained, because 'free' is lovely but 'free and baffling' is less of a selling point.

Happening Saturday 25 July to Sunday 26 July.
Picked for Horley (Reigate and Banstead), not somewhere halfway across the county.
Only Local Gems and Curated venues make the cut, because standards are still a thing.
Listings with proper descriptions get bumped up the list. Three words and a shrug will not do.

Indigenous garden + terrace

at Studio 338

We’re excited to announce Indigenous at the legendary Studio 338 - our biggest standalone London show of 2026. After a packed start to the year across London and beyond, with more exciting announcements still to come for summer and the months ahead, many of you have been asking what our major London summer gathering would look like this year. On Saturday 25th July, we bring it to one of the most iconic spaces in electronic music culture - a venue we’ve admired throughout our entire journey, and one that has hosted some of the most respected names in global dance music. This event will also mark the official launch party of Indigenous Records. The label has always felt like a natural progression for us - an opportunity to take the sound and identity we’ve been building on dancefloors and give it a home beyond the events themselves. We can’t wait to share some of the music and artists that will shape the label’s future with you throughout the day and night. Taking place across both the open-air Garden and the world-famous Terrace, this is a full day into night experience built around scale, atmosphere and complete immersion. From daytime energy beneath the summer sun through to deeper late-night moments inside one of London’s most celebrated electronic music spaces, Indigenous takes over the venue for a 12-hour journey soundtracked by some of the most exciting DJs in London right now.

How I Grew A Moustache (Work In Progress)4Free! (worth double-checking)

How I Grew A Moustache (Work In Progress)

at Toynbee Studios

In a pursuit of better understanding her father, Riwa finds a letter he sent to his own late dad. With this discovery, she unlocks a quest that travels through timelines and across conversations with family members, piecing together a puzzle. Pulling in puppetry, silhouettes, and verbatim audio, How I Grew a Moustache explores how grief and silence travel across generations, and what it means to inherit stories that are left untold. At its heart, the work asks how diasporic families carry love, loss and memory across time.
