A multi-venue music festival spread across Norwich showcasing the best emerging bands and artists in a variety of venues and pop-up stages, hosting discussions with key figures from the music industry and afterparty events featuring renowned DJs, live electronic acts and our late night jazz jam in a church!

Wild Paths returns to Norwich in October, presenting 5 days of the hottest new bands and artists spread across 15 + renowned venues and pop-up spaces in the city. With a ‘Best New Festival’ award under their belts the Wild Paths team are back at it, inviting globally-renowned artists to perform alongside the best and brightest local talent and pairing it all with industry panels, afterparties, pop-up bars and food trucks. Grab your festival pass from the box office at The Maids Head Hotel and set off across the city, dropping into venues to grab a drink and catch some stand-out live performances, spanning genres from indie, folk, neo-soul and jazz to psych, post-punk, disco and loads more. Venues this year include medieval churches, a cinema, dive bars and record stores, a hidden street, a micro-brewery, a secret cocktail den, a creperie and a skate park in a church!

The festival also features an international festival conference spread over 2 days and providing a great opportunity to network with booking agents, label reps and other music industry types.

It’s an eclectic mix of live music, talks, pop-up bars, food trucks, late night jam sessions and a whole heap more. Including events suitable for all ages.

Run by a local collective of promoters, designers and musicians, Wild Paths embodies the fervent independent spirit of Norwich and its creative community. Now in its 6th year the festival has become a staple part of the regional (and national) festival calendar, perfect for discovering new talent and catching intimate sets from the Glastonbury headliners of tomorrow!
