Classic parties made a long-awaited returned to London with a special Love + Pride collaboration with High Hoops at the subterranean warehouse Hangar on Saturday 7^th July for a night of wonky house, disco and techno. The energy was electric and Honey brought the house down alongside Luke Solomon, Dan Beaumont, Sophie Lloyd, Michelle Manetti and the High Hoops DJ's. 

Folamour, Nightmares On Wax, Jamie 3:26 and many more label favourites head over to Defected Croatia in Tisno on 9^th – 14^th August in a series of unmissable Classic stages and boat parties.

The Deputy of Love, hosted by Luke Solomon, Honey Dijon and special guests, is set to close its doors this season at Pikes in Ibiza on 26^th September. According to Honey Dijon herself, "The concept for Deputy of Love Disco Tour is to bring color, vibrancy, theatricality, queerness, inclusion, and a sexually charged energy and environment back to club culture”.

Honey Dijon returns with her transcendental ‘Xtra’ album following her mesmerising ‘Xtra EP’. Set to release on 6^th July, Derrick Carter, Horse Meat Disco, Eli Escobar and many more put their stamp on this glittering array of stomping Honey tracks.
