Event runs Aug 24-25 at Trinity Buoy Wharf

Nashville Meets London (NML) has announced the first round of performers set to appear during this year’s Nashville Meets London Music Festival. The dynamic lineup includes Priscilla Block, Shy Carter, Manny Blu, and Kyle Daniel, with more to be announced. DJ Hish will also perform in between sets, while Absolute Radio Country host, Matt Spracklen, will compère the event.

The NML Music Festival will be held on August 24-25th in a new location at Trinity Buoy Wharf in East London. The new site is a stunning and cool new riverside venue opposite the O2 with an indoor stage and an outdoor seated area with food stalls and cashless bars. The festival will feature performances by 12 artists, with six sets scheduled for each day. Performances will be held between 4-11 pm on both days.

This year’s event will have a limited capacity. Therefore, anyone that wants to attend is encouraged to buy tickets early. Early Bird tickets for the event are £30 per person (plus the booking fee) for each day. Tickets will be available for purchase starting June 7th through the Pizza Express Box Office. Ticketing packages that provide additional perks, including access to a private/VIP space with a private bar, access to special events, and early event entry will also be available. More information on tickets and event packages providing enhanced experiences will be released in the coming days.

In its seventh year, the NML Music Festival has become a summer staple for country and Americana music fans. Festival performances will be held indoors at Trinity Buoy Wharf’s event space and will feature artists representing the US and the UK.

Throughout the festival, fans will have options, including listening to music or retreating to the venue’s terrace to enjoy the surrounding outdoor seating areas nestled among artistic backdrops and expansive river views. Food trucks and fully staffed bars will also be on-site, offering diverse food and drink options.

Unlike past years when the two-day music event was held on Saturday and Sunday, NML 22 will be held during the evenings on Wednesday and Thursday night due to the venue’s availability and the event organizer’s effort to not interfere with other surrounding events.

On August 19, NML will host the NML Country Music River Cruise just days before the festival, with support from PizzaExpress Live! The NML River Cruise will feature acoustic performances by several soon-to-be-announced artists, a set by DJ Hish, and hosting by Absolute Radio Country presenter Matt Spracklen. Tickets to this exclusive event are extremely limited and will be available for £45 per person. Limited VIP table packages for eight people are also available at £560. The boat will embark at Bankside Pier at 19.00 and depart at 19:30. Live performances will kick off at 20:00, with DJ Hish kicking off his set at 21:00. The boat disembarks at 23:15.

Leading up to the summertime festivities, NML Presents! monthly residency shows will take place on June 29th, and July 27th.
