The online programme will kick off with a live countdown on the large screen at Piccadilly Circus.
BBC Radio 1xtra’s DJ Ace and Capital Xtra’s Remel London will be presenting on the main stage channel.
Shayna Marie and Yinka, also of Capital Xtra, will present on the sound system channel alongside musician Ras Kwame.
Other presenters include BBC Radio London’s Aurie Styla and Claire Clottey, as well as DJ Martin Jay.
