Last updated: 17:52 Sun 21 Jun 2026

We are sorry to announce that tonight’s concerts with Arooj Aftab & London Contemporary Orchestra and Michel Padron’s Afro Cuban Orchestra have been cancelled.

Due to a damaged gas main, parts of the city centre including Bristol Beacon have been evacuated and travel to the area is not advised.

As the police cordon is likely to remain in place for some time, we unfortunately cannot proceed with tonight’s events.

Ticket holders will be contacted by email and are advised to hold on to their tickets as we are working hard to find rescheduled dates for these concerts to take place.

We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
