After a triumphant return in 2024, Simple Things Festival will once again take over some of Bristol’s most iconic venues for a day and night of boundary-pushing live and electronic music. And, as one of the UK’s most forward-thinking music festivals, expect a “playground of cutting-edge sounds.”
It’s back on Saturday, November 8, with the festival once again placing Bristol Beacon at its heart. Well-known throughout the country for its bold programming and innovative curation, you can expect performances from groundbreaking artists, rising talents and industry legends spanning the city.
The line-up has yet to be announced, but this next edition of Simple Things already has a legacy of delivering eclectic and cutting-edge performances, with past shows from ‘Max Cooper, Flowdan, Wu-Lu, Warmduscher, Gazelle Twin, SCALER, Evian Christ, Paranoid London, Jessica Winter and many more.

Returning in February 2024 for the first time since 2019, last year’s Simple Things ended with an extra-special closing concert from electro-pop icon Fever Ray. Here’s hoping that organisers – Crack Magazine, Team Love and founder Matt Aitken – can top that this time around!
Pre-sale tickets to Simple Things will go live on Monday, April 7, before the full festival announcement at a later date. To keep up to date with new details, including the first wave of artist announcements, you should sign up for the Simple Things mailing list by heading here.
