About this event

Waterworks 2026 is unable to take place at Gunnersbury Park on September 12th & 13th. It will instead take place at The Cause on the same dates for a very special, one-off 36-hour marathon event over seven spaces.

The Cause feels uniquely built for a format like this. Its mix of outdoor spaces, intimate rooms and industrial late-night dancefloor and chill out zones allows the weekend to naturally evolve over 36 hours — moving from open-air daytime sessions into heavier after-dark energy without ever losing momentum.

Rather than trying to recreate a traditional festival setting, this becomes something far more immersive: a continuous journey through day and night in a venue designed with sound and production running through its core.
