The Carnival of Chaos, it's what it says on the tin! This is the ultimate mega rave, no holds barred, full send. Classic Wrong’un Crew shenanigans, but this time we’re producing a whole ass festival within a club night!

25+ crews, 40+ djs, 80+ artists, with gogos, cabaret, drag, interactive theater, immersive decor, light installations, tonnes of rig, festival vendors, food stalls, and much much more!

Experience a true celebration of both Bristol and the UKs underground and grassroot rave communities, focusing on platforming emerging, diverse, and passionate artists, this will be a rave for the history books.

Featuring 3 music and 1 cabaret stage, walkabout performers, chill-out spaces, fire pit, art spaces, community outreach, vendors and secret immersive corners to explore, The Boxing Gym will be overflowing with oddities and shenanigans, ready to blow your mind every direction you look.

Let's take a deeper look at our main attractions:

The Big One: Hard fast carnage from the likes of A4T, Glade Paling, and Stinny Stone, surrounded by gogo podiums packed with the Cute Cartel, Clamour clowns, and more drag creatures than you can imagine, featuring a mind boggling laser display, and powered by the full Sensi Sounds 16 sub stack.

Toxic Jungle: this immersive space will be taking you on a journey from Bassline to Jungle, and ending with an explosion of Political Hardcore from the likes of Sozlad and Scottish Gabber Punk, powered by our good pals Goldstax Soundsystem.

Slumber Party XD: this is going to be arguably the silliest room on offer, full girly slumber party makeover for our donk focused room powered by Riggy Stardust. Expect pillow fights to the sounds of Full Power Party Crew, Alterum, and DJ Cant Say No b2b Bubble07, and more!

Wrong’uns Cabaret Stage: for the first time ever were dedicating a whole stage to the weird and wonderful performances our community has to offer. From drag shows to burlesque, princess themed pop-up parties, to live, unhinged, and disorganised gameshows. We promise there will never be a dull moment here. Featuring the iconic Supernothing Tv, House of Bousse, Everglowing and many more!
