FINAL TICKETS AVAILABLE VIA VENUE BOX OFFICE ONLY

Experience one of the world’s rarest living musical traditions, live in Bristol. Naseer and Nazeer Ahmed Khan Warsi – known worldwide as the Warsi Brothers – are leading exponents of qawwali, the devotional Sufi music of South Asia.

Their lineage traces directly back to the Qawaal Bachhey, trained by Amir Khusrau, the 13th-century founder of qawwali, representing an unbroken 700-year tradition of the Delhi Gharana.

Winners of the 2025 Aga Khan Music Awards and recipients of India’s Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, their performances are immersive, powerful and deeply spiritual. Blending sacred poetry, rhythm and devotion, this rare UK appearance offers more than a concert – it is a living encounter with Sufi heritage, history and mastery, brought vividly to life on stage.

Presented by Asian Arts Agency
