One of America’s Fastest-Rising Drum & Bass Festivals Drops Its Biggest Lineup Yet and Expands to Two Days This December
Fueled by decades of ATL grit and global D&B energy, Jungle Bells returns this winter with its boldest move yet: a two-day, full-venue takeover of Atlanta’s iconic Masquerade, the four-stage home base that’s been central to its story from day one. What began as a homegrown party passed along on photocopied flyers has grown into one of North America’s most respected independent drum & bass festivals — and a driving force in the genre’s revival. The milestone 2025 edition will showcase some of the scene’s most in-demand artists, mixing genre-defining pioneers with the next wave of innovators.

In a city best known as the capital of hip hop, Jungle Bells has carved out an unlikely but undeniable home for drum & bass. The DJs feel that energy here… the crowd knows their history, they don’t settle for mediocrity, and the vibe is electric every single time – Brandon Couturier, Jungle Bells co-founder and brand director
RUDIMENTAL bring chart-topping hits and a Grammy nomination alongside their BRIT Award–winning legacy; RONI SIZE returns as a Mercury Prize trailblazer; BOU, one of the UK’s fastest-rising producers, fuels dance floors with heavyweight bass and viral anthems; GODDARD represents the melodic new wave; while acts like KINGS OF THE ROLLERS FT SERUM, VOLTAGE, BLADERUNNER + INJA AND B-COMPLEX channel deeply rooted, emotionally rich styles. Rising voices such as ANDROMEDIK from Tomorrowland’s camp and MANDIDEXTROUS UK bass crossover innovator, reflect the festival’s forward-looking edge, ensuring the spotlight shines on both legends and the genre’s next wave. VENJENT W/ OKTAE are set to rock as one of the most interactive social media stars on the line up.
Also joining the lineup are international and U.S. powerhouses: BORN ON ROAD, the Bristol collective carrying the torch for UK sound system culture; DILLINJA, a pioneer of techstep’s raw power; DANNY BYRD and FRED V, champions of melodic and vocal-driven D&B; and ÆON:MODE, one of the genre’s most explosive rising acts. They’re joined by CRITICAL SOUND SYSTEM FT. KASRA & ENEI, LSB & DRS, MUZZ, BASSTRIPPER, MOZEY, SUSTANCE, VISAGES, D:RC, DJ WEDNESDAY, PLATEZ and more, a true balance of global heavyweights and underground firepower.
This year’s four-stage setup (Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, and Altar) offers distinct sonic journeys, with afterparties that keep the music going into the early hours. For MJ Lee, Jungle Bells co-founder, widely referred to as “the festival’s host” it’s about more than just music. Behind the scene is a deep commitment to artist care, crowd connection, and honoring the culture that’s kept D&B alive in the States through boom, bust, and revival. “Half our audience travels from across the U.S. or overseas. We’ve had fans come 33 hours from Australia — and that energy pushes every performer to deliver something unforgettable. We bust our ass so you can shake yours.”
