What's on NYE

From huge clubnights and Alfresco Disco NYE to pub back rooms this is the essential new year's events list.

Around mid November every year the same question is on everyone's lips - what's on in Bristol on New Years Eve? This page aims to answer that question and provide complete listings for New Years Eve events in Bristol.

In Bristol there's a whole wealth of exciting nights out on New Years that frankly aren't available the rest of the year, with this in mind plan your night carefully and remember that tickets for popular events sell out fast. Unique options for what's on Bristol new years eve are all listed below. Bristol's biggest venues like to really up the anti with venues like Lakota and Motion turning out some of Bristol's most spectacular club nights to date. Bristol's best bands also work their balls off, missioning around the city playing multiple new years eve gigs. Unlikely buildings and pubs become one-off venues - booking bands, selling tickets (typically around £10) and welcoming ridiculously late licenses. Refreshingly it's these pubs that can provide some of the best live music and intimate atmospheres to be found in Bristol on NYE 2023. This is the most complete run down of whats on in Bristol on the 31st December 2023 this side of the Bristol suspension bridge.

Our Editor's New Year Picks

Our editor's top live music recommendation

Sell out warning! The mighty Dirtytalk joins forces with LGBT+ pardee community lifeline PLU and Wild Donna for a joyous NYE of chugged-out acid, EBM filth, dirty disco and ‘eughhhh I love YOU SO MUCCCCCCCCH’ euphoric house hugz. Strange Brew NYE: Dirtytalk, Wild Donna + PLU at Strange Brew.

Sell out warning! The last gasp of 2023 looks more like a roar with this all star 2 room cast of Noods Radio / Mickey Zoggs’ finest. 5 club nights in one go? Why not? With otherworldly industrial dubtech from i-sha and Jerome, wicked dark junglism from Pessimist & Clarity and Bristol’s First Lady of footwork, K means + way way more. AM x PTS NYE 2024 at Exchange.

Capping off another unforgettable year of blistering heat brought in from every conceivable corner of the globe, the last enchanted worm dance of the year is a resident's spesh. With trusted heads bringing their encyclopaedic knowledge of global dance culture to help you MOVE; expect a total trip through blistering zouk, psych fried soca, cosmic afro-jazz and more. Worm Soundsystem: NYE Tropical Meltdown at The Canteen.

NYE sell out warning! The understated god of weirdo funk - Maurice Fulton treads the experimental with genuine soul to his own beat of post-disco cosmic house realness. Yes, disco isn’t dead as long as Maurice lives. Let the 90s maestro fill your ears with infinite cowbells, ecstatic vocals and low-slung grooves til the lights come on. Club Blanco NYE w/ Maurice Fulton at the red church.

Sell out warning! Venue upgraded due to unprecedented demand from rabid D&D / drag fans. Your monthly dose of twisted sword and sorcery themed genderfuckery; it’s a Dungeons and Dragons play along with LIVE dice-rolling, interactive warfare and hilarious roleplay.

NYE PARTY Tickets

Bristol's intimate NYE parties

I'm always blown away by the scale of the lineups curated by Bristol's promoters over new years. Laurels are not rested upon and all the stops are pulled out. Motion's consistently immense new year's day line-ups are, without douby, some of the best this city has ever seen. But for many people, the ideal NYE in Bristol is a small party with a handful of their closest friends. Bristol promoters are well aware that small can also be beautiful, so we've listed 5 of the smallest NYE parties in Bristol below:
