ROBBY EAST ANNOUNCES SUMMER 2026 TOUR DATES INCLUDING FIRST NEW YORK HEADLINE SHOW AND TWO THIS NEVER HAPPENED TEN ANNIVERSARY EVENTS
The Dutch producer and DJ steps into a landmark summer on the back of collaborations with Lane 8 and Mees Salomé, a new EP, and a growing international live reputation.
Robby East is set for a landmark summer, announcing headline and festival dates across the UK, Netherlands, and USA, including his first headline show in New York City and two special appearances as part of This Never Happened’s tenth anniversary celebrations.
The run kicks off on 22 May at High Lights, Barking Park, London, for This Never Happened TEN Summer Gathering, one of the milestone events marking a decade of Lane 8’s celebrated phone-free label. Playing b2b with MYRNE, Robby East joins a standout lineup including Lane 8, Sultan + Shepard, Dusky, Colyn, Mees Salomé, and Natascha Polke at one of London’s most technically advanced outdoor venues.
On 6 June, Robby East returns to his home country for Distant Moments at De Hangout in Wijk aan Zee, a beach party alongside Mees Salomé, a setting that captures the emotional, atmospheric sound he’s become known for.
13 June sees him cross the Atlantic for Cross Pollination at Mission Ballroom, Denver, another This Never Happened TEN event alongside Lane 8 and Sultan + Shepard. He’ll be playing b2b with French artist Teho.
The summer closes on 27 June with Above(Ten) at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, New York City, a rooftop sunset party overlooking the Manhattan skyline and Robby East’s first headline show in New York.
The dates arrive at a prolific moment for the Amsterdam-based artist. He recently featured on Lane 8’s forthcoming album Cross Pollination II with the track “Penguin Parade”, and his collaboration with Mees Salomé, “Mindstate”, has earned widespread DJ support from Armin van Buuren, Joris Voorn, Lane 8, and Nora En Pure. His tracks “Toucan” and “More Than This” (with Lipless) have each reached the Most Heard position on Sirius XM Chill.
Robby East has also just unveiled his new EP :’), a four-track project described as “crying on the dance floor”, a darker, club-focused sound that pairs emotional depth with big melodic payoffs. The EP represents a natural evolution for an artist who has built his name at the intersection of feeling and the dancefloor.
Alongside his studio output, Robby East has spent the past year establishing himself as a credible live act internationally. Having done extensive support work for Lane 8 across the USA, Canada, Northern Ireland, the UK, and the Netherlands, he expanded his touring footprint last year to include South Korea and China, bringing his atmospheric sound to audiences across Asia for the first time.
This Never Happened, now celebrating its tenth year, is known globally for its phone-free events policy, designed for audiences to be fully present in the music and the moment. Having two appearances within the label’s anniversary program is a meaningful endorsement of where Robby East stands in this world.
