A creative gathering to celebrate the life and legacy of musician and artist Oliver Tree, with music, storytelling and hands-on activities.
Beloved TREE is hosting a gathering for Oliver Tree in Brighton on Saturday 17 October, one of several dates planned across the UK. It's a day built for fans of all kinds, and families are welcome, with children attending alongside a parent or guardian. Throughout the day, people listen to his music, share stories and take part in hands-on activities: writing messages to Tree, exchanging personalised balloons and decorating drink bottles in his signature 'SLIME' style.
The gathering is part of Beloved TREE, an independent art and community project founded by Viktoriia Rapp, Tree's friend and manager, after the musician and artist died on 14 June 2026. Rapp says it began as a place to put the love people felt for Tree's music and grew into a way to keep creating, connecting and collaborating through his art. The Brighton date is part of a UK-wide series, with gatherings also planned for Manchester and London.

There's a longer-term project behind it, too. Tree had set up Dr. Oliver Tree's Extremely Epic Art Grant for Baby Geniuses, intended to fund creative projects across music, film, installation and performance art for 50 to 100 years; Beloved TREE plans to donate any remaining event funds to it. The Brighton gathering is on 17 October, with full details to be shared with registered attendees closer to the date.
