Leading club nights Sink The Pink and Guilty Pleasures bring us Mighty Hoopla - the ultimate celebration of pop and alternative club culture.

Just announced! Mighty Hoopla announce Fleur East to join the line up of the Sink The Pink main stage on 4th June at East London's Victoria Park. Joining the "Sax" star will be the newly announced Nimmo (DJ set), Bree Runway, Luisa Omielan and more, bringing perhaps more sass that you can actually fit in Victoria Park for one super salacious big day out. Also gracing East London's newest festival this summer are previously announced headliners Years & Years as well as All Saints, Charlotte Church, Will Young feat. Sink The Pink Soundsystem, Sophie Ellis Bextor, S Club Party, Raye, Girli, Alma, Porter and many more. Tickets are now on sale from £35 at the Mighty Hoopla.

Fleur East is set to take to Mighty Hoopla's main stage flanked with the creme de la creme of the UK's drag scene as part of Sink The Pink Soundsystem. Expect explosive pop anthems, high intensity dance routines and a whole lot of "Sax" from the X-Factor star. Shantay you stay! Then there's an appearance from globally lauded comedian Luisa Omielan who will be serving up the laughs with her sell out stand-up show, Am I Right Ladies?

Adding to the nostalgia fest is garage duo Artful Dodger who are newly announced and set to fill festival revellers with 90s glee as they churn out their universally loved anthems 'Re-rewind' and 'Movin' Too Fast'. Also performing is newly announced Vula from the legendary Basement Jaxx bringing fierce electro-pop classics to the party with the likes of 'Red Alert' and "Oh My Gosh'. Rising star and style icon, Bree Runway also joins the existing line up as well as Nimmo (DJ set).

VIP packages are on sale tomorrow for just £50, giving festival-goers access to exclusive DJ sets from king of style Gok Wan as well as sets none other than Fearne Cotton and festival favourite Gemma Cairney.

"Hold On To Your Knickers!" as Mighty Hoopla are also offering festival-goers the chance to travel to Mighty Hoopla like a Spice Girl on a specially decked out Spice Bus! Spice-travellers will re-enact everyone’s favourite movie speeding through London singing along to the favourite Spice tracks accompanied by the UK’s #1 Spice tribute act The Wannabe’s, bubbly, and a goody bag full of “previously-endorsed-by-the-spice-girls” swag. For more info visit here.

Further stages include Lady Garden and The Glory's Bird Cage which takes over the bandstand and features performances from the iconic East End performance bar's famous proprietor, Jonny Woo as well as A Man To Pet and Poly Amarous. The Tiny Dancer Stage offers a more intimate, one hundred capacity space filled with the best Hip Hop and R&B diva club-anthems and wind-your-waist vibes courtesy of R&She DJs as well as sing along party bangers from Hot Breath Karaoke and more.

These acts join the the previously announced Years & Years for their UK summer festival exclusive as well as nostalgia crew S Club Party, All Saints, Will Young, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Charlotte Church's Late Night Pop Dungeon, Technotronic, Snap! and Alison Limerick. A who's who's of rising talent are also on the line up including incredible Raye, Girli, Alma, MNEK collaborator Porter, queen of the UK drag scene Jodie Harsh, Lorraine Bowen, as well as Sprankenstein and The Twinnies.

Heading up the celebration of alternative club culture are Sink The Pink and Guilty Pleasures with their Hoopla friends and family in tow. Presenting the new pop event concept, Mighty Hoopla will be packed with relentlessly energetic DJs, bedazzling dancers, live bands and speciality performers galore.
