The After Skate Party
- Text by HUCK HQ

We’ve teamed up with DC Shoes and Rekorderlig to throw The After Skate Party at the Rekorderlig Midsummer House in Victoria Park, London E9 on June 30.
The party will be celebrating the best of the summer with beats, BBQs and booze at this pop-up lakeside Swedish idyll in the heart of busy East London.
Attended by the DC UK skate team, the party will be kicking off at 6pm with tickets at £10, which includes a complimentary bottle of Rekorderlig fruit cider and food from the Swedish style BBQ by the Disappearing Dining Club.
Throughout the night, the bar will serve all of Rekorderlig’s premium fruit cider flavours, including the limited-edition exotic Passionfruit flavour, as well as a range of unique summer cider cocktails.
Join the HUCK and DC crews to party the long summer night away, and you might even end up in our rogues gallery online after the event!
Follow the link and add tickets by the listing for the exclusive HUCK x DC party.
