Sharpson's Gaff Party

Get ready for a night of absolute mayhem as Sharpson, the infamous backwards DJ, brings the legendary energy of 'Granny’s Gaff' at Electric Picnic straight to the dance floor! What started in 2018 as a humble gathering in a small polytunnel on the outskirts of the festival has now grown into the biggest proper nighttime rave at Electric Picnic. Known for his high-octane performances, Sharpson will be spinning a nostalgic set packed with rave classics from Scooter, Basshunter, DJ Cammy, and more. Expect the unexpected as he mixes with the decks upside-down, stage-dives, and grabs the mic to MC live—guaranteed to get everyone on their feet.

During the Covid lockdowns, the scauld-master himself, Sharpson kept the party alive with his radio show The Gaff Party on RTE Pulse, showcasing the best in techno and drum and bass emerging from Ireland. Now, he’s bringing that same electrifying energy to Sharpson’s Gaff Party, where the chaos and creativity of his infamous raves will be unleashed. With a track record of releases on Dirtybird, Southpoint, and Hardcore Energy, and support from industry giants like Four Tet, Deborah De Luca, and Riva Starr, this is an event you simply cannot miss.

Join us for Sharpson’s Gaff Party and experience the madness that has turned him into a festival legend and a true icon in the rave scene!

Doors at 11pm @ The Sound House
