Craig David, Tinie Tempah and more joining Capital XTRA over Easter
For four days over Easter, Craig David, Tinie Tempah, Lisa Maffia and Lethal Bizzle are joining Capital XTRA for a Fully Reloaded Takeover.
The shows will be simulcast across Capital XTRA and Capital XTRA Reloaded, with a focus on old skool hits from the 1990s and 2000s.
Tinie Tempah opens the weekend on Good Friday between 10am and 12pm, revisiting the period around his breakthrough, while Lethal Bizzle hosts a grime and garage special on Saturday from 6pm to 8pm.
Lisa Maffia returns on Easter Sunday from 12pm to 4pm, following her appearance earlier this year.
On Easter Monday, Craig David marks 25 years since the release of Born To Do It, playing the album in full from 10am to 1pm and reflecting on its creation.
Regular presenters including Yasser, Toni Phillips, Zeze Millz, Omah Howard and Kennedy Taylor will also appear across the weekend schedule.
Matt Deverson, Managing Editor of Capital XTRA, said: “We kicked off 2026 in serious style when Capital XTRA went Fully Reloaded with Lisa Maffia on New Year’s Day – and we’re keeping that same energy this Easter.
“Bringing the very best of the ’90s and ’00s together in one huge takeover feels massive for us. These were era-defining years, shaped by artists like Lisa, Craig David, Tinie Tempah and Lethal Bizzle, and now we’re celebrating their legacy with the spotlight they truly deserve.”
