Peggy Gou headlined Field Day in its first year in the Brockwell Park summer series, closing a sold-out day of house, techno and bass music.
Field Day, the London festival of electronic music, moved to Brockwell Park in Herne Hill on Saturday 24 May 2025, with Peggy Gou at the top of the bill. The South Korean DJ is the voice of “(It Goes Like) Nanana”.
Gou was born Kim Min-ji in Incheon in 1991 and first came to London at 14. A friend taught her to DJ in 2009, and she played her first gig at Cirque Le Soir in Soho.
She later moved to Berlin, where she became the first Korean DJ to play Berghain. Her debut album, I Hear You, came out on XL Recordings in June 2024.
Field Day began in Victoria Park in 2007, and 2025 brought it into the series of summer festivals staged in Brockwell Park. The day sold out.
Gou had played Field Day as a special guest in 2022. This time she closed the main stage with an uptempo deep house set, flanked by waving golden cat figures.
Dixon, Jayda G, Fatima Yamaha, Skream & Benga, and James Blake back to back with Mala played earlier in the day.
