  • London Calling is een twee keer per jaar gehouden festival in Paradiso, Amsterdam. Het festival richtte zich aanvankelijk alleen op de nieuwste britpopbands uit het Verenigd Koninkrijk, maar ontwikkelde zich gaandeweg tot een van de belangrijkste showcasefestivals van Nederland waarin de nieuwste beloftevolle britpop-, indie- en dancebands staan en er aandacht is voor trends. Talloze, veelal Britse, bands hebben voor hun definitieve doorbraak naar een groot publiek op het festival gestaan. Vanaf 1996 duurde het festival twee avonden, in 2007 en 2009 zelfs twee keer drie dagen. (nl)
