Party in the City  2025

Bath’s biggest evening of FREE live music. Party in the City kicks off on Friday 16 May.

Some 2,000 singers and musicians will play at 39 venues and it’s completely free to attend – so save the date.

Stay in one place for the duration, or move from venue to venue to enjoy live performances from much-loved local bands through to emerging talent. There is something for every taste, with 16 genres of music on offer.
