Dutch DJ, producer, and label head Franky Rizardo returns to New York for his biggest U.S. headline show to date — a full venue takeover at Knockdown Center on February 21, 2026, with his acclaimed brand and label: FLOW.

A defining figure in the international house and techno scene, Franky has spent the last decade building a global reputation through carefully crafted DJ sets, chart-topping releases, and his dedication to the craft. Whether playing Amnesia Ibiza, fabric London, Shelter Amsterdam, or leading stages at festivals like Tomorrowland, Mysteryland, and Extrema Outdoor, Franky’s sets are a masterclass in groove and progression.

Launched in 2015, FLOW. began as a weekly radio show and evolved into a global event series and label, LTF Records (Listen to Flow). Since then, it’s hosted packed-out events across Europe and beyond, including takeovers at ADE, Tomorrowland, and a 14,000-person sold-out festival with JOY in The Netherlands. Through LTF, Franky has released standout tracks like “Everybody” and “Make My Body Move”, while supporting artists like Ferra Black, Tre Reynolds, and Simone Liberali.

Now, FLOW lands at Knockdown Center — a multi-room, industrial warehouse venue in Queens with soaring ceilings, immersive lighting, and plenty of space to get lost in the music. With Franky at the helm for this all-night session, this will be a definitive moment in New York’s house music calendar.
