Info

WHAT?

Unfest is an annual local music and arts fringe festival for Tunbridge Wells and the SouthEast region.

WHEN?

Unfest is held every Spring Bank Holiday weekend at the end of May. In 2019 it will be held on Thursday 23rd, Friday 24th, Saturday 25th, Sunday 26th May, Monday 27th May.

WHERE?

The festival centres around The Forum on Fonthill and its sister pubs on the Pantiles, The Ragged Trousers and Sussex Arms.

In 2014 we were delighted to be joined by several affiliated venues. 2019 venues include The George, The Bedford, The Royal Oak and Pantiles Bandstand.

WHO?

The festival is curated by the volunteers who work year round at The Forum. It aims to showcase the town’s independent spirit: its music venue, it’s businesses, its music and art - with three days of free entry to see the best of what is being created and hosted in Tunbridge Wells.

Unfest is named for, and curated by Unlabel – the Forum-based independent record label founded in 1996 to highlight the town’s flourishing underground music scene, and which has gone on to work with bands throughout the UK and beyond.

HOW?

Unfest is a largely free, not-for-profit festival (another reason for the ‘un’). It is made possible by organisers giving their time for free, musicians playing for free, and venues providing their space for free.
