Patrick Topping Presents Trick Open-Air Takeover

On June 12, 2026, Patrick Topping takes over The Ruins for a full Trick label takeover, bringing his widely respected imprint into an Open-Air setting designed for a full night on the dancefloor. Joining him are Italian DJ Draxx b2b Irish producer Fallon, Australian talent Airwolf Paradise, and CatLadyHi.

Hailing from Newcastle, England, Topping has spent over a decade establishing himself at the forefront of house and techno. He has built a strong presence on the island of Ibiza, with successful Trick residency seasons at DC-10 and a multi year run at Hï Ibiza. Since breaking through in 2013 with releases on Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations and Hottrax, he has become a regular at the world’s leading festivals and clubs, including Tomorrowland, Coachella, Awakenings, Ultra, and more.

In 2019, Topping launched Trick, a label born out of a desire to release a broader range of sounds while creating a platform for emerging talent. What started as an outlet for his own productions has grown into one of the most recognized brands in the underground, now surpassing 125 releases and helping guide multiple records to Platinum and Silver certification. The label has introduced and supported a new generation of artists, including Max Styler, Pegassi, Edd, and more.

Beyond the label, Trick has evolved into a global event series. From early parties in Newcastle to large scale festivals in Tenerife, Newcastle, and Budapest, the brand has expanded across major venues and festivals worldwide. It has hosted stages and takeovers at Creamfields, The Warehouse Project, Drumsheds, EDC Orlando, PICA Melbourne, and The Concourse Project in Austin, while its DC10 Ibiza residency marked a key moment in bringing the label back to one of the club’s most important stages.
