All Day I Dream is heading back to Industry City in Brooklyn on September 19, and this time the whole day belongs to one person. Label founder Lee Burridge will handle an eight-hour open-to-close set, taking the crowd from afternoon into night without a support lineup to share the booth.
It’s the label’s second NYC gathering of 2026, following a sold-out June showcase at the same waterfront venue that featured Rodriguez Jr., Guy Mantzur, Double Touch, and Raw Main. September’s edition strips things back to just Burridge, echoing the earliest All Day I Dream events in New York, back when he’d routinely play the entire day himself.
Handing over a full eight hours to one DJ is no small ask, but it’s also the format that built Burridge’s reputation in the first place. Open-to-close sets let a selector build a narrative arc rather than working within the constraints of a 90-minute festival slot, and Burridge has long been regarded as one of the more patient, detail-oriented DJs in the melodic house and techno space. This booking gives him the room to do that at the label he started.
The timing lines up with a broader moment for Burridge. He recently released his single ‘Fading Out’ and saw the debut of Sound of a Dream, a documentary covering his four-decade run in dance music and the origins of All Day I Dream. The Industry City set adds another chapter to that story, arriving as Burridge continues to balance his roles as producer, curator, and touring DJ.
All Day I Dream isn’t slowing down elsewhere either. The series has added new stops in Cape Town and St. Tropez this year, alongside summer dates in London, Ibiza, Barcelona, Mexico City, and San Francisco. After Brooklyn, the calendar moves into October and November with shows in Los Angeles and Montreal, before wrapping the year with a three-date run through Australia in Byron Bay, Sydney, and Melbourne.
The label traces back to a Brooklyn rooftop party in 2011 and has since grown into one of the more recognizable event brands and record labels in the melodic house world, built around a reputation for emotive production, immersive stage design, and a loyal following that treats the parties as much as community as concert. Bringing Burridge back to New York for a solo set closes the loop in a way — the artist who started it all, back in the city where it began.
