Fabric’s Bank Holiday weekend: amapiano, Skream and the Appetite after-hours route
The Clerkenwell club’s upcoming Bank Holiday run draws a firm line through three different dance-floor communities: Piano People on Friday, then two Appetite afterparties across a.
For the long weekend running Thursday 27 through Sunday 30 August, Fabric supplies a compact late-night route with a changing centre of gravity on each visit. Friday 28 August belongs to TXC and a large Piano People Afterparty cast; Saturday 29 August moves into an Appetite afterparty led by Skream; Sunday 30 August continues the Appetite thread with Locky B2B Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer. Each date begins at 11pm at Fabric, making the venue a useful fixed point for readers who want their Bank Holiday plans to begin after the daytime programmes across London have wound down.[1]
Friday: TXC’s Piano People Afterparty
TXC headline Friday’s FABRICLIVE: Piano People Afterparty, alongside Zee Nxumalo, Justin99, Shaun101, Tadi Wav, Tatti, Malume MC, MöRDA, Deb Fa, Intuit, OneThabs, Jada Jade, JMKLIMZy and Selasi. The density of names gives the evening its particular shape: this is a billed programme with a broad supporting cast, allowing the line-up itself to carry the focus through the night. TXC are the duo Tarryn and Clairise; their agency describes them as amapiano performers from Gqeberha who have made their mark in Johannesburg, with releases including A Fierce Piano and “Turn Off The Lights.”[1][2]
That context makes this the weekend’s most direct entry point into amapiano on the calendar. Readers arriving for TXC can treat the programme as a full-room proposition, with established South African names including Zee Nxumalo and MöRDA placed alongside the headliners in Fabric’s official listing. It is also the first of the three events, so it suits anyone seeking a complete Friday night in one place, from the 11pm local start through the club’s advertised 6am finish.[1][2]

Saturday: Skream carries the Appetite afterparty
Saturday’s Appetite Afterparty has Skream at its head, with Jamback, Lewis Carroll, James Lavelle B2B Tom Da Silva, Jaden Thompson, Kellie Allen, Phill De Janeiro, HALFPINT and IZZY. also listed, alongside two special guests. The appetite banner is useful connective tissue for the final two nights: Appetite is simultaneously presenting its 2026 on-the-farm event, while Fabric’s programme gives London-based attendees an after-hours continuation of that Bank Holiday atmosphere.[1][4]
Skream offers a recognisable anchor within a multi-artist bill. Apple Music identifies the Croydon producer as part of dubstep’s founding generation and traces his later work across tech-house, piano house, New Wave and disco. The important practical point is the breadth suggested by that background and by Saturday’s supporting names: this is a club-night booking built around a selector with a long history across UK bass and dance music, framed by a current local line-up.[1][3]
Sunday: a closing session built around a three-way B2B
The Bank Holiday closes at Fabric on Sunday 30 August with Locky B2B Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer. Captain Wallop B2B Special Guest, Sarah Story, Laura De Greef, Wax Material, Hank and Max Sinal complete the announced bill. A three-person back-to-back has a different editorial logic from a conventional headline set: the shared billing puts the working relationship between the selectors at the front, while the rest of the programme offers several additional routes through the night.[1]
For practical planning, all three Fabric events begin at 11pm: TXC on Friday 28 August, Skream on Saturday 29 August, and Locky B2B Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer on Sunday 30 August. Fabric lists finishes of 6am, 7am and 6am respectively.
