Description
The innovative festival will run from Friday 2nd October – Saturday 17th October 2026, bringing together musicians, promoters, and immersive tech specialists from far and wide to create unique collaborations and unmissable one-off events.
Its festival site stretches and sprawls through a labyrinth of spaces, busy streets and quieter corners, through Cardiff’s dynamic city centre to the glistening river mouth and freshwater lake of Cardiff Bay.
Especially-commissioned urban soundscapes, a tech and talent conference, industry sessions and a bustling fringe programme will add extra layers of rhythm and noise to the festival’s progressive, enthusiastic reach. Cardiff Music City festival nights will also bring together some big names in the industry with tomorrow’s exploding talents.
A full programme of local and international talent, including household names and emerging talent will be announced over the coming months.
