The Big Indiefest at The Point Sunderland
The Big Indiefest brings four hours of indie anthems to The Point Sunderland on Saturday 24 April. Starts 6pm; standing; 14+.
The Big Indiefest comes to The Point Sunderland on Saturday 24 April with four hours of indie tribute music built around some of the biggest UK guitar acts of the last two decades. Arctic Monkeys, Sam Fender, The Killers, The 1975 and Kasabian all feature across the night, with a live band, DJs and performers shaping the wider show.

That makes this closer to a mini indoor festival than a standard tribute set. Several catalogues are folded into one evening, so the pace should stay high and the audience is not waiting through long changeovers between separate bands.
The Big Indiefest at The Point Sunderland
The North East connection is particularly obvious through Sam Fender, but the wider song choices should cover several generations of indie fans. Arctic Monkeys and Kasabian bring the heavier side, The Killers provide the huge choruses, while The 1975 pull the night towards a more polished modern sound.
The event starts at 6pm and is standing. It is also 14+, with under-18s required to attend with an adult. Those details are worth checking before booking, especially for younger fans or anyone who needs a seated event.
Four hours of indie anthems
The festival-style format is the main attraction here. Instead of spending the whole night inside one artist’s catalogue, the show can move quickly between very different bands while keeping the overall indie-rock thread intact. That should give the room more variety than a single tribute act could manage.
