Festival of live bands from independent label Grow Your Own Records across indie, punk and rock at The Pig on Hastings seafront.
Grow Your Own Records are taking over The Pig on Saturday 7 November for the Grow Your Own Festival 2026, a one-day celebration of the independent label. It's a full day of live bands, with the bill running across indie, punk and rock, so you'll get a fair spread of the label's sound in one go rather than having to pick and choose between separate nights.
If you've been following the label, this is a good chance to see several of their acts on the same stage. The festival is built around the label itself, so the bands playing are all part of the Grow Your Own stable. The music sits in that broad indie-rock territory, with the punkier side of things pulling it towards the louder end of the spectrum, and the indie side keeping it melodic. It's a day that works as a showcase for the label's current roster, with the different bands filling out the afternoon and evening.
