ISLAND HEAT — 8 Years of Sound, Style & Sweat
This summer, we mark 8 years of RUN IT — eight years of grassroots anthems, legendary sets, and community-first. What started as a DIY night for overlooked sounds has become a genre-spanning movement built from the underground up. Island Heat is the latest chapter — a sweaty, sun-soaked session for the people.
On Saturday 28 June, RUN IT turns 8 — and we’re bringing the fire with a full-blown tropical day party to mark it. Celebrate the journey so far and the future we’re building next.
For this one: we’re outside.A day-to-night link-up (4PM–11PM), deep in the heart of the city.
Following their successful Easter Bank Holiday Special event, we've partnered with Nestor & Co. and Tunnel Vision — a next-gen DJ and rising promoter — to bring a fresh spin to the dance floor. Island Heat brings even more energy and is the most anticipated day party event of the year.
Expect a heavyweight blend of DJs, special guests, and the genre-bending energy we’ve become known for. From UKG and Amapiano to Reggaeton, Dancehall and Baile Funk, this is for the ones who know — and the ones just tuning in.
Dress code: Tropical Brights.Bring colour. Bring confidence. Bring heat — Island Heat.
8 years deep. Still DIY. Still for the culture.
This isn’t just a party — it’s a thank you.For the dancers, the selectors, the creatives, and the heads who made RUN IT what it is.
Let’s make it hot.
