The new Forwards festival on The Downs in September promises to be one of the highlights of the summer for Bristol festivalgoers. Electronic music legends The Chemical Brothers and Jamie xx are the headline acts for this brand new music festival, which is a collaboration between Bristol’s Team Love and AEG - the team behind California’s famed Coachella and London’s BST Hyde Park festivals.
Tickets for the two-day event have been selling well over the past few months and there are still some available. The tickets start at £57.04 but O2 Priority is offering a ‘241’ deal which essentially means you pay £57.04 for two tickets.
Forwards takes place on September 3 and 4, and it replaces The Downs Festival, which has taken place at the same location in recent years. As well as The Chemical Brothers and Jamie XX, the line-up includes Little Simz, Róisín Murphy, Sleaford Mods, Caribou, Khruangbin and Fred Again.
