Jumbi Presents: a six-week celebration of culture, music & community with SubSkate

This summer, the team behind Jumbi Peckham presents SubSkate: a bold new evolution of their community-rooted vision, taking over a neighbouring warehouse in the heart of Copeland Park for a six-week art, music and culture residency from 11 July to 19 August.

Built on the same foundations that have made Jumbi one of London’s most respected hubs for sound system culture, food, music and connection, SubSkate is both a continuation and an experiment. Curated by the Jumbi team alongside a handpicked group of collaborators, the 1,000-capacity Peckham warehouse space transforms into a modular, multi-use venue designed for celebration and cultural movement.

By day, SubSkate becomes an open rolling rink, emblazoned with art by global artist, Slawn, a space for skating, community and free expression By night, it shifts into a bass-reactive dancefloor where embedded subwoofers channel low-end frequencies through the floor, turning rhythm into architecture and making the dancefloor an extension of the sound system itself.

To mark the launch, artist Slawn will create a bespoke visual intervention inside the roller rink. Alongside a Peak drinks mood bar, brand ambassador and collaborator Slawn will be creating a bespoke piece for the roller rink and teasing something special to come – his presence sets the tone for a summer of art-meets-movement. 

Keeping the space accessible for young people is a must. From 26 July to 17 August, weekday daytime skate sessions before 6 pm will be free for under-16s. It’s part of Jumbi’s broader commitment to nurturing the next generation of skaters, dancers, and creatives.

The current event schedule is listed below, and there are further events with Yussef Dayes and Slawn to be announced in due course.
