- The Palestinian event will span four shows in September, including three at Cafe OTO.
- Palestine's Exist Festival will take place in London this year. Running from September 8th through 10th, the seventh edition will be in memory of Exist founder Odai Masri, AKA ODDZ, who died in June. There will be four events—three at Cafe OTO and one at The Yard—featuring the likes of Drew McDowall, Rrose, Choronzon, Renata and Sami El Enany. "This edition acts as a moment to remember [Odai] gracefully and extend gratitude for the time we were lucky to share with him," the festival wrote. "We invite our audience to act as carriers for these memories which we are so privileged to be able to keep with us. Exist is Odai's legacy, and we insist on keeping it strong, fearless and bound by love." Launched in 2019, Exist has hosted festivals and events in Ramallah, Amman, Beirut, Athens, Oslo and Berlin. The team describes itself as "a growing family of siege-breakers who refuse to let Palestinian artists confront injustice alone."
