About NASS Festival 2024
NASS was a four day festival held at the Bath and West Showground, which brought together 15,000 lovers of music, skating and BMXing to celebrate their lifestyle. It had a purpose built skate and bike parks and 5 stages of Dubstep, Drum and Bass, Punk and Rock.
Between the massive music acts and the raw action sports professionals ruthlessly competing for gold, the festival's aim was to push boundaries. To ride or to party? You decide.
This was the only festival for true fans of skating and BMXing. Nothing else compared.

NASS is located on Bath and West Showground, which makes NASS a very accessible festival as all avenues have hard surfaces apart from the main stage and the campsite area, which is grassland which when the rain comes can make access around the campsite difficult.
We endeavour to be a festival that everyone can enjoy, and to provide an event site which is as accessible as possible to everyone.
The use of disabled access facilities is reserved solely for the use of permanently disabled customers and unfortunately not for those with broken legs, recent injuries and/ or pregnancies.
