Little South is where the artists come to play - created with the goal of supporting and promoting local DJs and Producers in West Cornwall, UK, who specialize in various genres of dance music. The enthusiastic response from the Cornish nightlife community was overwhelming, allowing Little South to become a crucial platform for local artists seeking exposure at events. As time went on, our reach expanded beyond Cornwall and encompassed artists and events from across the entire South West of England, UK. One of our defining features has been the opportunity to showcase DJ mixes through our podcast series. Since our establishment, we have actively published podcast mixes from some of the most talented DJs in the South West. These mixes serve as a testament to the exceptional skills and creativity of our region's DJs, providing a platform for them to showcase their talent to a wider audience.

At Little South, we have a strong commitment to nurturing nightlife and live music events. A crucial aspect of our work is event promotion, which we prioritize and strive to excel at. Our dedicated team actively seeks out localized, independent music events to showcase and promote. Additionally, we proudly provide a platform for major events happening throughout the South West region, including specialist music festivals and large capacity live music events. By actively supporting and promoting these events, we aim to contribute to a thriving music scene and ensure that both local artists and established acts receive the recognition they deserve.

The Little South pages serve as a platform for emerging musical talent in the South West of England. Our goal is to encourage, foster relationships, and provide opportunities for new artists to showcase their sounds and events. We support DJs, Producers, and Vocalists of all genres within the electronic music landscape. If you are interested in being featured on our pages, we warmly welcome your expressions of interest.

Casa Presents The Drake's Island Day Party

5th July 2025

Drake's Island, Plymouth

The team responsible for popular dance events in Plymouth, known as Casa, is set to host a significant dance music event on Drake's Island, located in front of Plymouth Hoe, on July 5th, 2025. This event is noteworthy not only for its location but also for the logistical challenges involved, as access to the island will be strictly regulated through a private ferry service, ensuring controlled entry and exit for attendees. This unique setting and organisation make the event a significant addition to the city's cultural calendar.

This fortress island sits 500 metres away in Plymouth Sound.
Historical records of the island are from 1135 AD, the island gained importance when it was used as a strategic defensive point in defending Plymouth against enemy ships.

Over it's time the island has been used for many purposes including a state prison, barracks, chapel, artillery tower, observatory, smuggling spot.

The island has many military fortifications including the cannons which will surround you at our mainstage.
