Your faithful hosts, insieme festival founders Tashaboo + matato met under the stairs at a rave many moons ago - and we still haven’t stopped dancing. We love music and love to bring people together – insieme – means “together” in Italian. Our aim is to collect like-minded, real music appreciators to create something special.

Rave the Date, Bass Odyssey, Sunday Funday, and Dance Mode - we’ve put on small parties in various locations in and around Bristol over the years. During the pandemic, we thought creatively about how to connect with friends and dance again, and started hosting yearly gatherings. Thus, insieme festival was born.
