London’s newest electronic music destination, Ironworks, has wrapped up its inaugural season after welcoming an estimated 35,000 music fans across five events between 3 October and 1 November 2026. Located at Thames Wharf in East London’s Royal Docks, the 7,000-capacity warehouse venue launched with an impressive programme of house, techno and electronic music, bringing together some of the scene’s biggest names alongside ambitious audiovisual production.
Developed by PROJEKT and LWE, Ironworks has transformed a historic industrial site on the banks of the Thames into a large-scale cultural destination. Combining raw warehouse architecture, immersive lighting and bespoke stage designs with a spacious riverside terrace, the venue has brought a fresh setting to London’s ever-evolving clubbing landscape. Its opening season also marks another chapter for LWE, the promoters behind events at iconic London spaces including Tobacco Dock, Great Suffolk Street and Hearn Street Car Park.
Five Shows, 35,000 Ravers and Some of Dance Music’s Biggest Names
The season kicked off on Saturday 3 October with Jamie Jones’ Voyager, featuring a special set revisiting the sounds of the 2010s and a back-to-back performance alongside Seth Troxler. A week later, Eric Prydz took over the warehouse on 10 October, delivering his signature audiovisual experience and closing with a rare play of his iconic track Call On Me. CamelPhat followed on 24 October, treating fans to an extended four-hour journey through their sound.
Halloween weekend brought a change of pace as London party brand Appetite hosted its biggest event to date on 31 October. The sold-out Zombie Apocalypse takeover welcomed a cross-generational lineup featuring Groove Armada, electro pioneer Egyptian Lover, Sidney Charles and Appetite founders Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer. The following evening, Charlotte de Witte brought the debut season to a close with two hours of uncompromising techno, rounding off five weekends of electronic music at the new venue.
A New Chapter for London’s Warehouse Scene
Beyond the lineups, Ironworks’ industrial surroundings have been central to its identity. Occupying a former shipbuilding site along the Thames, the venue incorporates 78,000 sq ft of internal warehouse and office space alongside more than 80,000 sq ft of external riverside space. Rather than hiding the building’s industrial character, each event embraced it through large-scale lighting installations, immersive visuals and tailored stage production.
With its first season complete, Ironworks has already demonstrated its potential as a major addition to London’s electronic music circuit. The wider site is also set to accommodate markets, wellness sessions, outdoor cinema and street food, extending its ambitions beyond the dancefloor. After five shows and 35,000 visitors, the foundations have been laid for another distinctive warehouse destination in the capital.
