Nippa to headline programme of activations celebrating N17 at Hoffenheim clash
Fans attending our home friendly match against Hoffenheim on Saturday 15 August will be treated to an exclusive performance by up-and-coming Tottenham artist Nippa prior to kick-off.
The lifelong Spurs fan will perform Homegrown – a track which expresses the resilience, creativity and ambition of N17, and has become the soundtrack to our new era built on reconnection with our fans, the local community and cultural heritage.
The live performance will take place on the pitch at approximately 2.45pm, following the player warm-ups and before the teams walk out for the match. We encourage match-going fans to be in their seats by this time to enjoy the performance and avoid impacting others’ experience of the show.
Nippa said: “Homegrown is a track that is about bringing everyone together - throughout the ups and the downs that we go through, we're still homegrown, we're stronger together. This is who we are. This is where we're from. That’s what I kind of wanted to portray.
“This song is for the community, and the community involves everyone in the football club and outside the football club. I’m all about representing my home, representing where I am from, my people and my community and something that is dear for us is our football club. We're all homegrown. It's a song for all of us.”
It headlines a programme of matchday activations celebrating Tottenham – its familiar locations, creative energy, people and culture – including:
- A meet and greet with former goalkeeper and Tottenham resident Alfie Whiteman from 12-1.30pm at the Tottenham Experience to mark the reopening of his first photography exhibition, A Loan, at OOF gallery
- A musical performance from Pan Nation Steel Orchestra - a Tottenham-based group that has been in existence for nearly 20 years, providing a safe space for people of all backgrounds to learn and grow together via steel pan music – in our Fan Zone on Park Lane Square pre-match
- Pitchside interviews with inspirational local people that have worked with the Club’s Foundation and whose stories reflect the talent and drive that exists in our community.
