TICKETS : £148.76

OK summer lovers, we’re gutted to have tell you that we are finally calling time on ATG 2021. We tried for as long as possible to stay optimistic but unfortunately, like so many other festivals & events who have already cancelled this year, we have had to take the incredibly tough decision to postpone ArcTanGent until August 17th-20th 2022.

We’re beyond devastated that we won’t be able to hang out with you for another year.

The good news is that all tickets are automatically valid for next year’s event and if you already have your ticket, you don’t have to do anything to reserve your place at ArcTanGent 2022. Your existing ticket is now your ticket to 2022.

The even better news is that things are already looking amazing for next year with tickets almost sold out already! What’s more, today we can officially announce that joining us in 2022 will be Opeth, Cult of Luna, TesseracT, MONO, Amenra, Maybeshewill, Alcest, Perturbator, Leprous, Enslaved, Caspian, The Locust, Agent Fresco, Oathbreaker, Intronaut, A.A.Williams, Bell Witch, Jo Quail, Svalbard, Mass of the Fermenting Dregs and Blodet.

We also have a super-exciting 3rd headliner to tell you all about real soon as well as over 100 more of the best bands playing across 4 days next August. So it’s time to get excited & stick August 17th-20th 2022 in your diaries now!

Please read the whole statement below for more details.

You are of course entitled to a refund, but it would be super amazing if you either rolled your ticket to 2022 OR delayed your refund request until our full line up is finalised (sometime around February). We’d like to think that we’ll be able to convince you to come party next year with all these amazing bands we’ve got in the ATG pipeline!

Thanks for reading and we massively look forward to seeing you in 2022!

Si, James & Goc

The festival will take place on August 17th-20th 2022 at Fernhill Farm, Compton Martin near Bristol, and tickets are on sale now – HERE

Winner of the 2018 Best Small UK Festival Award

Adding to a line up that already includes main stage headliner Opeth, the outside Bristol based, award winning ArcTanGent Festival can today announce a very exciting further collection of bands and artists for this years event.

Emerging from the New York No Wave scene, the incredible Swans will be playing ArcTanGent for the very first time, bringing their post-punk, industrial, noise-rock to Fernhill Farm.
Joining them will be Californian grindcore legends The Locust, who will be playing their first UK show in over 5 years at the festival. Also making a long awaited return will be much loved and hugely impressive Belgian four-piece Oathbreaker, whose show at ArcTanGent is a UK exclusive performance.

Also announced includes Canadian punks Metz, experimental instrumental Leicester 5 piece Maybeshewill (with a UK exclusive performance), highly acclaimed mighty Norwegian prog outfit Leprous and the incredibly impressive Icelandic rock band Agent Fresco.

A full list of bands announced today is below:
Swans / The Locust / Metz / Maybeshewill / Oathbreaker / Leprous / Agent Fresco / The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die / Car Bomb / Wear Your Wounds / A.A.Williams / Tides From Nebula / Jo Quail / The Samuel Jackson Five / PETBRICK / Herod / Teeth Of The Sea / The Hirsch Effekt / Bent Knee / Astrosaur / tortuganónima / Bolt Ruin / The Hyena Kill / Mutant-Thoughts / Coldbones / Skemer / Natalie Evans / Odradek / Heisa / The Mantis Opera / Last Hyena / Rainbow Slicer / Lack The Low / SEIMS / Elephant Tree / Kokomo / Thumpermonkey / TOTS / Bicurious / God Alone. / Land Wars / MIËT / Vogons / Straight Girl / Ogives Big Band / qariaq

ATG Festival organiser James Scarlett – “I’m so ridiculously excited about this announcement that it’s difficult to know where to start! I’m particularly hyped for Oathbreaker, The Locust and Maybeshewill, all of whom I thought might be gone for good. And we’ve also got Converge’s Jacob Banon back at Fernhill Farm with Wear Your Wounds plus the epic awesomeness of a 90 minute Swans Main Stage set will be incredible. I cannot wait! Word to the wise, we’re not increasing our capacity this year so tickets will sell out!”

“It’s been years since The Locust returned to the UK so we are tickled pink to play ArcTanGent! We’ve known for a while now that the world is fucked but before our species ends itself there are still epiphanies and solace to be had whilst the soundtrack to life on a fucked timeline continues.” – Bobby Bray, The Locust
