Strange Brew hosting the PTS ϟ 13th Birthday is the kind of event that defines Bristol’s electronic music scene. Evian Christ commands a lineup that’s a masterclass in bass-heavy innovation, with Koreless, Zora Jones, and Alya L rounding out a stacked roster. Expect Strange Brew’s intimate vibe to amplify the night’s experimental edge.
The Christmas Steps leans into the lighter side of rhythm with the “Disco Isn’t Dead Day Party.” Barbara Boeing brings Balearic flair to a sunny afternoon set, backed by local favorites Brad Bradley and Beavs. This one’s perfect for easing into Saturday with grooves that don’t demand stamina but still deliver.
For deeper textures, Sawmills shifts the focus to live instrumentation at “Jam on the Horizon.” Quantic and Joe Armon Jones lead the evening alongside Zero 7, blending electronic and organic sounds in a way that feels uniquely Bristol. If you want something that bridges electronic and jazz, this lineup hits that sweet spot.
The Red Church keeps Saturday’s disco energy alive with “Disco Isn’t Dead with GIDEÖN.” Gideon dives into house and acid territory flanked by Spicyivy and Safiye. The Red Church’s smaller capacity means this night will stay tight, with every beat pulling the room closer together.
Finally, The Loco Klub celebrates “The Prog Lab 8th Bday” with none other than John Digweed. His progressive house sets are legendary, and with support from Redfreya and Samu3l, this event promises an immersive journey through sound, perfect for those who want their Saturday to stretch long past midnight.
The full lineup for Bristol tomorrow is at all Bristol events.
