Last year saw the return of the much loved HOCKLEY HUSTLE after a four year break, and there is no doubting what a huge success it was, with over 40 venues and 400 acts helping to raise over £20,000 for good causes.
Given the success last year it comes as no shock that the Hustle will be back again in 2015, and now we know the date – Sunday October 11 2015,
This year the organisers have decided that rather than going even bigger they’re going to go for something a little bit more compact in a bid to intensify the event and keep the focus on the Hockley area. That said there will still be over fifteen venues – including Broadway, Jamcafe, Rough Trade and The Bodega – and around 200 acts.

Talking about this years event Ash Dilks, who is the marketing manager for the festival, said:
“Last year was the comeback year for us, we proved that we could really get Hockley buzzing with over 3,000 attendees at the festival. Now we’re firmly back on the map we’ve consolidated things a little and focusing on quality acts in a more compact area.”
Having been a part of the 2014 Hockley Hustle, you can read about our stage here, we’re really excited to see that it’ll be back in 2015 and can’t wait to find out more – and you can be sure you’ll hear all about it both here and at NGDigital.
