Europe’s sneaker event Franchise, Sneakerness, will be coming to London for the first time and the hosts for the 2 day event is Crep Protect, the UK sneaker protection brand founded by Grime artist J2K. Sneakerness London will be held at world class venue, The SSE Arena, Wembley on 15th and 16th August 2015.
Head of Sneakerness Giacomo Castelli speaks on the news:
“Ever since the first Sneakerness in Switzerland back in 2008 we have dreamed of bringing our event to London – after all, everybody in the sneaker and streetwear world looks to the city for inspiration. Now, after establishing a successful annual tour over the years with fixed dates in Zurich, Amsterdam, Paris, Cologne and Warsaw, we’re making the move over the channel, and we’re more than excited to see Sneakerness London coming together so soon. With strong local partners and the input from the vibrant British scene this is definitely going to be one for the ages!”
Co-founder and director of Crep Protect, J2K comments “The sneaker community is absolutely thriving in the UK and an integral part of the culture – and as the premier sneaker event in Europe, we felt it was important that Sneakerness have a presence over here. As such, we began discussions with the Sneakerness team about working with them to bring it to London. The iconic The SSE Arena Wembley is an ideal home for it and we’re really excited to be involved with such a massive and prestigious sneaker event.”
Sneakerness London, in association with Crep Protect will take place at The SSE Arena, Wembley on 15th and 16th August 2015. Tickets for the event will be released later in the year.
