MIDSOMMAR MANSION - FRIDAY at Ashton Court

If you’re interested in the rude health of Bristol’s noise-rock, indie, post-punk, freak folk, nu-jazz, heavy psych underground …. scrap that, if you’re into ANY music AT ALL, then you need to attend one of these frankly historic takeovers.

A massive thank you to Art Space Life space for allowing us to put this together at the wonderful Arts Mansion

We aim to provide a platform for grassroots musicians to perform on stages, network with other musicians and establish themselves within the Bristol scene. We love music that pushes boundaries and carves its own path, breaking norms and causing storms with creativity and passion.


This is a two-day event. Please note that tickets are sold separately for each day. A ticket for the Friday will only be valid for Friday 20th and a ticket for Saturday will only be valid for Saturday 21st. Weekend tickets will be valid for both days!!

This venue is wheelchair accessible. Some artists use their own lighting for their performance too, which may include flashing lights. If you have any queries or accessibility requirements please don't hesitate to contact us via Instagram or email in advance of the event so that we can appropriately account for your needs. We will do whatever we can :)
