First event since his release

Jungle prodigy is back to celebrate his release from a Dubai prison he was admitted to almost a year ago for possession of minute amounts of cannabis. He was sentenced to four years in prison but had his sentence cut short with a pardon from Dubai's Royal Family.

The legend will be playing his first gig since his pardon at London's Koko on 11th October along with a handpicked selection of supporting DJs including Shy FX, Dillinja, Bailey, Mickey Finn, Jumpin' Jack Frost and more. Grooverider will be playing a special two hour back-to-back set with fellow drum and bass legend and long time collaborator and friend Fabio.

The high profile, one-off event will go on till 6am, and the very limited and rapidly selling out tickets are going for £15.

Images from Ibiza

The hedonistic, sex-fueled party took place in some of The White Isle's most famous clubs, as well as its own Motel venue, with punters and DJs alike frequently spending days on end revelling in its debauched atmosphere.
