The sixteenth edition of Uprising festival will again be very diverse in terms of genre, which is confirmed by the most recently published names, this time with a significant representation of the grime scene among foreign and Slovak artists.

Friday night on the Arena Stage will be dominated by the strong trio of British drum and bass Ed Rush, Optical and Audio and their b2b set! Their joint performance will also be a celebration of the 25th anniversary of Virus Recordings, one of the most popular drum and bass labels in the world, founded by Ed Rush and Optical.
British rapper Lady Lykez with her unique style and uncompromising flow will come to Zlaté pesky to present her EP WOZA and a catchy fusion of grime, dancehall, UK gqom and rap genres. The endurance of the Arena Stage will also be tested by one of the fundamental pillars of the British club scene, The Bug, with the support of the legendary Mc Flowdan (UK), who promise us a gigantic show in the form of a special Dubstep and Grime set.
