Acts appearing include An, Baxter Dury, Beak>, Ross From Friends, This is the Kit, Working Men’s Club and more.
Born in 2015, the genre melting Mutations 001 set the foundation for its daring line-ups to come. 2019 saw a mysterious venue unearthed on the outskirts of the city as Mutations 002 evolved into a powerhouse of creative exploration. Arriving at any place and at any time, Mutations Festival is an ever evolving and unforeseen meeting of like minded music fans, hungry to uncover the unknown and the unexpected.
With a passionate belief that all customers should be able to enjoy the festivals headline acts, Mutations Festival 2021 is structured such that the festival uses lower capacity venues, but more of them, during the day, as the afternoon progresses the number of venues being used reduces and the capacities increase, culminating in the evening with one single headline stage each day where all customers can enjoy the final acts of the night.
