Sanctuary of Sound: Future Flex at the Royal Victoria Chapel

At FORREST, our mission is to deliver a musical experience that not only revives but also redefines our connection to music. In a world where polished productions dominate, we choose to celebrate raw, authentic sounds

We hand-select stunning venues across the UK, focusing on locations that enhance the ambience of each performance. This week, our venue is set in the beautiful Royal Victoria Country Park, overlooking the Southampton Waterfront you’ll find the secluded, ornate Chapel. Steeped in military and medical history, this chapel was once part of a major hospital serving those who bravely fought in wars worldwide. Since the hospital's demolition in 1966 it is the only part of the building still standing. Join us in this sacred space for an immersive experience where authentic rhythms harmonise with rejuvenating frequencies.
