Wild Paths Festival
A new breed of festival
14/10/25 - 18/10/25
Wild Paths returns to Norwich this October, presenting 5 days of the hottest new bands and artists spread across 15 renowned venues and pop-up spaces in the city. With a ‘Best New Festival’ award under their belts the Wild Paths team are back at it, inviting globally-renowned artists to perform alongside the best and brightest local talent and pairing it all with industry panels, afterparties, pop-up bars and food trucks. Grab your festival pass from the box office at The Maids Head Hotel and set off across the city, dropping into venues to grab a drink and catch some stand-out live performances, spanning genres from indie, folk, neo-soul and jazz to psych, post-punk, disco and loads more. Venues this year include everything from record stores, basement venues and cafes to an Octagon Chapel, a brewery and a skate park in a church.
Run by a local collective of promoters, designers and musicians, Wild Paths embodies the fervent independent spirit of Norwich and its creative community. Now in its 6th year the festival has become a staple part of the regional (and national) festival calendar, perfect for discovering new talent and catching intimate sets from the Glastonbury headliners of tomorrow!
There’s some grand plans and daring new event concepts in the works, so make sure you don’t miss out on what promises to be the most spectacular Wild Paths to date!
Come join us for a city-wide celebration of music, culture and community
