What to expect

This is a museum DJ residency rather than a conventional seated performance. One guest gets the space for an extended set, and visitors can listen, meet and move around the upper ground floor.

LO-LOW is part of London’s queer electronic music scene and founded the Soft Domination radio show and event series. The V&A describes this set as playful and genre-fluid.

Getting there

V&A East Museum is on East Bank in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Stratford and Stratford International are the most useful nearby stations. Allow time to find the museum if this is your first visit to the Olympic Park.

Useful questions

Is upperground free?
Yes. The V&A lists this as a free event during the museum’s public opening hours.
Do I need to book?
The official listing does not show a ticket requirement. Capacity can still be limited, so arriving before the busiest part of the evening is sensible.
Do I have to stay for the whole set?
No. It is a three-hour museum event, and the format is suitable for dropping in rather than attending a fixed seated performance.
Is this at the V&A in South Kensington?
No. It is at V&A East Museum in Stratford, at 107 Carpenters Road, E20 2AR.
