A word from Graeme Park
Summer Days 2026 returns to the historic Mains Castle Dundee on Saturday 29th August, bringing together some of the most influential names in UK club culture for an afternoon-into-night of house, deep house, acid house and soulful house.
Headlining is Graeme Park, whose career began in a Nottingham record shop in the early 1980s before he was called to cover for Mike Pickering at Manchester's legendary Haçienda in 1988 — turning into a nine-year residency that helped define the UK's Summer of Love. He's since remixed for New Order and Sophie Ellis-Bextor and continues to perform Haçienda Classical with a full orchestra at venues including Glastonbury and the Royal Albert Hall.
Joining him is Jon DaSilva, another Haçienda resident credited by Sasha as a key influence on modern DJ set-building through his pioneering use of acapellas and sound effects. Voted #25 in Iconic Magazine's All Time Top 50 DJs poll, he remains a resident at London's I Love Acid and continues releasing music on labels including Rush Hour and Soma.
Rounding out the lineup is Lexicon Avenue, bringing a fresh contemporary house sound alongside the headline pairing.
Set against the atmospheric backdrop of Mains Castle in Caird Park, this promises a special day out for house fans of all generations. More names still to be announced. 18+.
