London has been a vibrant breeding ground for the alternative scene, nurturing its growth and evolution over the past few decades. Iconic venues like The Shacklewell Arms and MOTH Club have become essential spaces where emerging and established artists connect with passionate audiences. These venues, thoughtfully curated by Wide Awake founder and booker Keith Miller and the team at LNZRT, have played a pivotal role in shaping the city’s cultural landscape. Their success naturally paved the way for the creation of Wide Awake Festival.

Since its inception, Wide Awake has been masterminded from the MOTH Club’s office, affectionately known as “The Moffice,” where it shares creative energy with the legendary promotions company, Bad Vibrations, which continues to bring unforgettable gigs to life
