Festival Information
South East
Overview
Wanderlust Festival is an independently run, city-based music event that unfolds across a network of venues in Southampton. Designed to spotlight new and under-the-radar artists, the festival invites audiences to move between spaces and discover emerging talent in an energetic urban setting.
The programme draws from a broad range of contemporary sounds, including indie, punk, electronic music and DJ-led nights. With its late-running schedule and venue-hopping format, Wanderlust offers a club-focused festival experience geared towards adult audiences who enjoy live music discovery and the buzz of a night-time city scene.
