Twisterella Festival

Founded in 2014 by promoters Pay for the Piano and The Kids Are Solid Gold, Twisterella is a multi-venue urban festival held in central Middlesbrough, around Linthorpe Road and Southfield Road. Focused on emerging talent, it has hosted Sam Fender, Dream Wife and Prima Queen before they broke through, across venues such as Teesside University Students' Union and Westgarth Social Club.
