Mighty Hoopla, the fabulous festival celebrating all things pop and enjoyment is returning to London this year, after the success of 2017. And they’ve just announced their headline act: TLC. This year is sure to be a pop-studded, glitterfest of a summer playground.

Atlanta formed TLC, the best-selling American girl group, will headline Mighty Hoopla this June for a UK festival exclusive. The R&B behemoths will perform their first ever UK festival, promising a set bursting with some of the biggest hits of our time, including girl power anthem ‘No Scrubs’, the life-affirming ‘Waterfalls’ and ‘Creep’, as well as huge summer hits ‘Way Back’ and ‘It’s Sunny’ from the band’s eponymously named 2017 album, which saw them return after a 15 year hiatus. The performance in South London’s Brockwell Park will mark the group’s second ever UK performance following a sold out KOKO show last year.
