Major Sponsors, including Pepsi and Diageo, have sensationally withdrawn from London's Wireless Festival following the controversial booking of Kanye West as a headline act.
The rapper, now known as Ye, is scheduled to perform a three-night residency at Finsbury Park from 10 July to 12 July 2026. However, his return to the UK after an 11-year absence is now under threat as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and London Mayor Sadiq Khan lead a political chorus of condemnation.
