Ruination Festival rises again from the concrete and smoke of Bradford, returning for a third epic event as a crushing celebration of doom, sludge, and stoner metal - loud, low, and fiercely independent. Rooted in the North of England and powered by grassroots. Two nights. One venue. Absolute sonic devastation.
Friday 30th - A Night of Ruin
💷 £10 adv // £15 OTD // £7 with a Saturday ticket
The descent begins with an intimate, oppressive warm-up night - riffs crawling out of the amps and into your bones:
1968
Garden Of Remembrance
Hollow Earth
Gods Of Hellfire
Kamien
A night of suffocating atmospheres, blown-out fuzz, and ritual-level volume. Expect sweat, smoke, and no escape.
Saturday 31st - Ruination Festival
💷 £20 adv // £30 OTD
Saturday is where everything collapses. A full day of monolithic riffs, psychedelic heaviness, and doom-laden catharsis:
Slomatics
Old Horn Tooth
Witchsorrow
Famyne
Warpstormer
Alunah
Tuumanduumband
Dark Fighter
Whiskeyhead
Nowt
From hypnotic slow-burn doom to full-throttle sludge assaults, this is a lineup built to shake foundations and melt faces.
