Leeds to Host Wigflex 20 Years Tour Featuring Craig Richards on 24th May 2026

Welcome to Yorkshire

Published on May 2nd, 2026

On Bank Holiday Sunday, 24th May 2026, Leeds will host a special celebration as Eiger Studios welcomes the Wigflex 20 Years Tour. This exciting event will feature renowned DJ Craig Richards, alongside Lukas Wigflex and Willow, promising an unforgettable experience for electronic music fans.

Club Eiger's Exciting Line-Up

The event marks a significant moment for the Club Eiger series, which has been gaining traction since its launch last September. Eiger Studios is known for creating a vibrant atmosphere, making it a perfect venue for this unique showcase. The day will kick off with an open-air party, transitioning into a nighttime marathon, ensuring a full day of music and fun.

Headlining the event, Craig Richards is a legendary figure in the UK club scene. With over 30 years of experience, he is best known for his long-standing residency at Fabric, one of London’s most famous nightclubs. His ability to connect with the audience through music has made him a highly respected DJ, and this performance is a rare opportunity to see him in a more intimate setting.

Celebrating 20 Years of Wigflex

The Wigflex collective, led by Lukas Wigflex, is celebrating its 20th anniversary, showcasing its evolution from a local Nottingham party to an internationally acclaimed brand. Known for its independent spirit and unique sound, Wigflex has built a loyal following, making it a key player in the UK underground music scene.

Lukas Wigflex has been central to this success, not just as a DJ but also as a promoter. His dedication to creating memorable experiences has helped Wigflex thrive for two decades. The upcoming event in Leeds is a continuation of this journey, following a sold-out performance at Eiger last October.

Joining the Line-Up: Willow and Local Talent

Another exciting act to watch out for is Willow, a close collaborator with Lukas and an accomplished DJ in her own right. Often performing together as "Willowflex", she is known for her engaging sets and dynamic presence on stage. Willow's contributions to the music scene further enhance the line-up, promising a well-rounded showcase of talent.

Additionally, the event will feature support from Tom Blubear, who is responsible for curating the Club Eiger programme, and Torin, a local star and resident DJ at Synthetica. This mix of established and emerging talent highlights the commitment of Eiger Studios to promote both iconic figures and local artists.

What to Expect at Club Eiger

Attendees can look forward to an extraordinary day filled with music, dancing, and a vibrant atmosphere. With a limited capacity, this event promises to be an intimate experience, allowing fans to connect directly with the artists. The combination of an open-air party and a nighttime marathon creates a unique opportunity for festival-like fun in a warehouse setting.
