Ritual Union

Ritual Union

For 3 years, Ritual Union made its name as Oxford’s premier one-day festival bringing acts such as Fontaines D.C., Self Esteem, Gaz Coombes and more. Crosstown brought the multi-venue music festival to Bristol for the first time in October 2022 with the help of another local promoter, 1% Of One. After a successful debut, Ritual Union returns to Bristol in March 2023.

Taking place across Bristol’s Nelson Street - SWX, SWX 2, The Lanes and Rough Trade, a Ritual Union ticket offers value for money, giving music fans the chance to enjoy some of the best established and up and coming acts the UK has to offer, all in the setting of one of the most buzzing musical cities in the UK.
