If Heroes still gives you that cinematic rush, if Let’s Dance gets you moving instantly, and if Life On Mars? hits you with that unmistakable Bowie magic — this is your night. Introducing the David Bowie Sunset Festival — a colourful, theatrical, genre-blending celebration packed with live music, atmosphere, and those iconic festival moments only Bowie’s music can create.
This is the UK’s only dedicated Bowie sunset festival, happening right here in Liverpool — beginning in The Garden @ Wav indoor garden arena and finishing in the club room directly underneath. Think the art, energy and spectacle of Bowie’s live eras… blended with summer festival production, without the cold, rain or stadium prices.
From a Bowie-inspired warm-up act to a full live tribute concert spanning Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Let’s Dance and more, followed by a late-night afterparty filled with glam rock, synth-pop and alternative anthems — this is one of the most immersive and visually striking nights in the entire 2026 programme.
Every guest receives a FREE branded festival lanyard and a Bowie-inspired cut-out mask on entry. Picture it: hundreds of Ziggy lightning bolts glowing and dancing together under the Garden roof._________________________________________
🌅 The Garden @ Wav – The Sunset Festival Edition
Liverpool’s most unique indoor-outdoor venue — clear roof, heating, giant LED wall, arena-grade lighting, artificial grass floor, and vivid colour beams that instantly put you in full Bowie mode.
☀️ Warm night? Our cooling system keeps the venue perfectly comfortable.
🌧️ Raining? Doesn’t matter — the clear roof keeps the festival atmosphere alive.
At 22:00, the full crowd moves downstairs — into our underground tunnel-club, recently voted Top 8 Event Spaces in Liverpool, transformed for a Bowie-themed afterparty with glam rock, new wave, synth-pop, alt classics and late-night festival energy.
And yes — the afterparty is completely free with your ticket.
If you can’t stay late, the main Garden show alone will be unforgettable._________________________________________
