As ArcTanGent gears up to celebrate its monumental 10th year, the anticipation reaches new heights. With today’s announcement that the likes of itoldyouIwouldeatyou, Baroness, and Scaler would be joining the already-stacked bill.
Taking place from 14-17 August 2024 near Bristol, this year's edition promises an unforgettable experience for music enthusiasts worldwide.

Expressing his enthusiasm, ArcTanGent Festival organizer James Scarlett remarked:
“We're over the moon to drop the full line up for ArcTanGent 2024 - we weren't lying when we said our 10th anniversary would be the biggest event we've ever put together. Baroness are another band we've been chasing around for years, we're stoked to be able to bring so many bands to ATG for the first time to help us celebrate in style.”
The festival's four-day extravaganza will feature an array of musical acts spanning various genres, ensuring there's something for every taste. From heavy hitters like Meshuggah and Mogwai to emerging talents like Scaler and Filth is Eternal, ArcTanGent promises an unforgettable experience for attendees.
