Tokyo World: Bristol’s Blockbuster Music Festival 

For the last few years, festival goers have been looking forward to spending summers in Bristol. There’s simply no better way to say goodbye to the warm months of the year than a weekend at Tokyo World, which has consistently been delivering such an insane caliber of performances festival after festival. No wonder it’s become one of the most anticipated events in Bristol’s music calendar; one that tends to get chock-full with music events especially during summer. Mind-blowingly elaborate stage design, such careful attention to sound system quality, and a crowd so fun-loving that good vibes is pretty much guaranteed throughout the weekend. If it leaves you wanting more, the good news is that there will be after-parties to look forward to.

Make sure you bring your most comfortable dance shoes, because you’re going to be hard-pressed to resist the legendary beats and tunes all weekend long at Tokyo World.

After all, when you’ve got the likes of Action Bronson, Sister Sledge, Submotion Orchestra, Groove Armada, and Morcheeba on the lineup, dancing no longer becomes optional. Fanfare or hype didn’t contribute to the massive popularity of Tokyo World, unlike other events – the acts simply speak for themselves. It should be said, though, that the local talents showcased at the festival are definitely worth watching. They’ve been known to introduce some stellar acts that, even if you haven’t heard of them, will knock your socks off with their epic performances.

So don’t wait a minute longer – book those festival tickets today. It’s your chance to have one last, albeit memorable, fling with music festival season.
