A grassroots community-run punk music festival taking over four local Easton pubs for three nights of live music, with pop-up kitchens and no tickets required.
Easton Punk Festival takes over four local pubs in Easton from Thursday 29 April to Saturday 2 May 2027, three nights of live punk music across one of Bristol's most characterful communities. It's a grassroots, community-run festival, and it keeps things unpretentious: there are no tickets and no wristbands, so you just turn up and catch live music as you go.
The music is spread across The Chelsea, The Red Lion, The Old Stillage, and The Plough, all in Easton, East Bristol. Most of the stages are indoors at the pubs, with some outdoor stages mixed in, and all the venues have disabled access on the ground floor. Pop-up kitchens run across the weekend at three of the sites, drawing on the area's pub culture.

Because it's run by the community, the festival is free to attend and operates on donations, with all proceeds going to charity. There's no ticket to book and no wristband to collect — you just walk in. The full list of gigs, set times, and day splits is announced in the weeks before the festival on the Easton Punk Festival Facebook page, so keep an eye on that as the date gets closer.
