KISS Haunted House Party announce more huge names
Stefflon Don, James Hype and a Majestic DJ set join the bill.
One of the spookiest and coolest events of the Halloween season just got better. Today more big names were revealed for the KISS Haunted House Party, which is returning to The SSE Arena, Wembley on Friday 26 October 2018.
British rapper and singer Stefflon Don joins the evening’s events, as does James Hype and Majestic, who will be delivering a DJ set on the night.
The latest names follow the additions of Anne-Marie, Jax Jones, Rak-Su, B Young and Lotto Boyzz (all shown below), as well as the already announced initial line-up of Liam Payne, Clean Bandit, Jess Glynne, Mabel and Rita Ora.
Stefflon Don rose to fame in 2015, working alongside Wretch 32, Lethal Bizzle, Sneakbo and more. She has released two mixtapes to date, most recently dropping Secure in August.
Liverpool DJ and producer James Hype is best known for his 2017 hit single More Than Friends. KISS FM resident Majestic also joins the bill, promising his trademark grime, garage, bass and house.
Platinum artist Anne-Marie will be bringing her massive hits, like 2002 and Rockabye, to the spooktacular evening. The pop star who originally found fame with Clean Bandit released her debut solo album Speak Your Mind in April, following five years of hit singles – such as her recent top five track Friends with Marshmello.
Chart-topping DJ and producer Jax Jones will add to the fun at KISS Haunted House Party too. His single Ring Ring, a collaboration with Mabel that was released over the summer, has been climbing the charts. Known for his No.1 hit I Got U with Duke Dumont in 2014, Jones is currently working on his debut album.
X Factor winners Rak-Su and urban breakthrough acts Lotto Boyzz and B Young are also set to appear at the massive party.
Now in its fifth year, KISS Haunted House Party promises a mixture of music, celebrity guests and jaw-dropping Halloween costumes.
Past events have seen the likes of Dua Lipa as a dead bride, Martin Garrix as Beetlejuice, Louisa Johnson reliving Britney Spears’ Slave 4 You look, and this year’s performer Rita Ora as Poison Ivy.
Liam Payne will take headline duties following the success of singles Strip That Down and the summer’s hit Familiar.
“I’ve loved Halloween since I was a kid so this event is going to bring together some of the greatest things I love – performing, my fans and sexy costumes,” says Payne.
KISS Breakfast presenters Rickie, Melvin and Charlie will once again host the event.
“KISS Haunted House Party is going to go off,” says Melvin Odoom. “Where else can you dress like the undead and lose it to some of the biggest names in UK music? Let’s do this.”
Rickie Haywood Williams adds: “Fancy Dress game has been STRONG the past few years, but we think this year everyone’s going to take it up another level. Now where’s my fake blood at…”
“This event always brings the vibes,” Charlie Hedges agrees, “and I can’t wait to see what the artists have in store for us this year.”
Liam Payne, Rita Ora, Clean Bandit, Jess Glynne and Mabel as well as Anne-Marie, Jax Jones, Rak-Su, B Young, Lotto Boyzz, Stefflon Don, James Hype and Majestic will take to London’s SSE Arena Wembley on Friday 26 October 2018.
