Following nine back to back sold out Reload Sound & Friends events all across the city, Reload Sound are bringing their community together for a special Christmas Takeover of Bristol Old Vic!
They’re taking over our historic venue to do what they love: bring people together around music that makes you move. Curated by Reload Sound and built for music heads, Reload Sound & Friends brings together good people and proper selectas, to connect genres, scenes and eras on a loud sound system.
Expect Dancehall, Hip Hop, RnB, Afrobeats, Reggae, Neo Soul, UK Rap, Soca, Amapiano, Grime, Future Beats, soundsystem culture and global bass.
You’ll hear the tunes you know every word to alongside unexpected blends, exclusive edits, dubplates and discoveries you’ll be asking the DJ about afterwards. Bring your crew or come find your people, dance, sing and help us give something back to Bristol. No ego. Just music and joyful energy from start to finish, with a dancefloor full of friends and future friends.
100% of the profits will support the Nilaari Agency, a Bristol-based, Black-led charity providing culturally sensitive talking therapies and mental health support, particularly for adults from Black, Asian and other racialised communities.
Full Artist and DJ Lineup To Be Announced shortly. Expect to be joined by some very special guests!
