Friendly Fires, Orbital, Pendulum and Calvin Harris will be turning a snow-covered Battersea Power Station into a music mecca next weekend as the London Freeze comes to town again.
The UK's biggest snowboarding, ski and music festival will see 80 world class skiers and riders battle it out over rails and a massive 100ft jump in 600 tonnes of imported real snow, while the big name music acts entertain the crowds in the tents.
On the sports side of things, the London Freeze is the UK leg of the LG Snowboard Fédération Internationale de Ski World Cup, a series of competitions all over the globe finding the best skier and boarder there is.
Freeze-goers will enjoy the insane tricks from huge athletes such as returning veteran and six-time FIS Champion Stefan Gimple and seven-time FIS medallist Louri Podladtchikov.
Away from the skiing and jumping there will be plenty of other things to keep you entertained, not least the music spread over two stages.
Headlining the main stage on Friday is Orbital, the seminal act who have recently made a highly successful return to the music scene following their disbandment in 2004.
Pendulum will also be doing a DJ set while Example, Fenech Soler and David E Sugar are also performing with The King Blues headlining the other stage.
Eagles of Death Metal are a legendary American rock band well-known for their high energy and charismatic performances on stage and will be headlining on Saturday night, backed up a Calvin Harris DJ set, while the Audio Bullys headline the other stage.
Closing the show on Sunday will be Friendly Fires, headlining their first UK festival.
Soft Toy Emergency will also be performing, while secretsundaze finish off proceeding on the other stage.
