Clear your schedule and cancel your plans: some of Lincoln’s best up-and-coming live acts are about to hijack The Jolly Brewer in Lincoln for an all‑day explosion of live music that refuses to come up for air.
From the moment the doors swing open, it’ll be music without taking a pause — with band after band, tearing through sets like they’ve got something to prove. And judging by the line‑up’s genre‑hopping chaos, they absolutely do.
Expect surf garage riffs crashing into synth‑punk snarls, power pop hooks to good old‑fashioned rock’n’roll that sounds like it was dragged straight out of a battered amp and set loose on the room. It’s all killer, no passengers.
So who exactly will be taking to the stage during this free mini-festival? Some of the East Midlands’ hottest live acts, that’s who…

Enjoy live sets from Chakra Shakers, Aubrey Eels & The Baron, See Mirror Sea, Leave Your Body Behind, The Gadgets and Plutonium Underdogs.

The Jolly Brewer will becomes ground zero for the kind of festival energy that normally takes a field, a wristband and a dodgepot camping experience. Here, it’s all packed into one room, one day, one glorious onslaught – AND IT’S FREE!

The line-up proves this won’t be background music. It’s not about hanging around. It’s about being there — front and centre — while wave after wave of bands tear through their sets to remind everyone why live music still matters.
Get down early. Stay all day. Bring your mates.
WHEN: May 2, 2-8pm
WHERE: The Jolly Brewer, Broadgate, Lincoln
