Popular drum and bass imprint to return to Bristol for Siren festival
A popular drum and bass imprint is set to return to Bristol as part of the Siren festival.
Following several sold-out shows in the city previously, Hospitality returns to the city in July, which also marks three decades since the inception of Hospitality Records.
The one-off show ‘Hospital30 on the Harbour’ will take over the Lloyds Amphitheatre as part of the open-air festival on July 25, with a drum and bass-packed lineup ready to enthral attendees.

Spotlighting a spectrum of drum & bass talent, Hospital30 will have two stages exploring different sides of the genre.
Its main stage will showcase Hospitality’s standout acts, with performances from Hybrid Minds, High Contrast, Fred V, Hoax, DJ Marky and more.
Meanwhile, the second stage will be hosted by The Deep End, exploring a more intimate space for experimentation and deeper sides of D&B. This stage has been called a zone built for “connection, discovery and musical exploration” featuring sets from London Elektricity, Bryan Gee, Nu:Tone, Makoto and more.
Other than the music, the festival promises a series of street food traders on site, and pop-up shops including the Hospital Shop.
Since its founding in 1996 by Tony Colman and Chris Goss, Hospital Records has grown into the world’s largest independent drum & bass label.
The event sits within the wider Siren Bristol summer series, the city’s flagship programme of open-air concerts at the Lloyds Amphitheatre.
