Busted Bristol

The boys are back in town!

 

Busted, the resurgent pop-punk holy trinity, are back in the charts and back in Bristol, making a welcome return to the city this July to headline Pride Day. The exuberant celebration of the LGBT+ community will take over Millennium Square on Saturday 8th July, with the noughties favourites trio heading up the festival’s musical entertainment.

 

This will mark the first Bristol appearance for the trio since their triumphant sold-out show at the O2 Academy in February.

Union J

Also performing at the bash are boyband Union J (above), Crush singer Jennifer Paige, Sonia, Saaro Aalto from The X Factor and finalist from The Voice, Jordan Gray.

 

And the fun doesn’t stop there, with after-parties taken care of by Charlotte Church, who is bringing her fan-favourite Pop Dungeon back to the South West, Horse Meat Disco and Don’t Tell Your Mother.

Pride Day will mark the culmination of a series of events taking place in Bristol to raise awareness for the LGBT+ community, running between the 30th June and the 9th July.
