Swinnow Grange Mills, Bramley, Leeds
Set against the backdrop of the historic Swinnow Grange Mills in Leeds, Mill Fest returns for its debut year in 2025 – a one-day celebration of music, art, food, ink, and local culture.
Born from a collaboration between Against the Grain, Grays Salon, and Rose & Thorn Tattoo Studio, Mill Fest brings together the creative heart of Bramley for a grassroots festival like no other.
Expect a full day of live bands, DJ sets, street food, artisan vendors, craft beer, and a tattoo flash day, all taking place across our industrial indoor spaces and open-air yard.
This community-driven event isn’t just about great music – it’s about showcasing local talent, supporting small businesses, and building something for the people, by the people.
Highlights include:
- Live ska, rock and metal bands from across the region
- A pop-up tattoo studio offering flash designs from some of Leeds’ best artists
- DJ sets and curated vinyl sounds throughout the day
- A vibrant market of local makers, artists and independents
- Delicious food trucks and BBQ, plus indoor bar and craft drinks yard
Mill Fest is independent, inclusive, and proudly northern. Whether you’re here for the tunes, the tattoos or just the vibes – you’re in good company.
