What is it?
BUMPAH is a queer and trans people-of-colour-led bass-music collective and label. This 90-minute foyer set is programmed as the free after-party for Southbank Centre’s Letters to the Future weekend, so expect a club-facing finish rather than a seated concert.
Timing and admission
The official page lists Saturday 19 September at 20:30 and an approximate runtime of 1 hour 30 minutes. Entry is free and no ticket is required, but foyer capacity can still be finite; check the organiser page before setting out and arrive with time to find the correct entrance.
Who it suits
Choose this for bass music, community-led nightlife and a late South Bank stop without a ticket price. It is less suitable if you need an allocated seat, a quiet environment or a guaranteed finish; the programme describes a foyer after-party rather than a conventional auditorium show.
Getting there
Queen Elizabeth Hall is beside Royal Festival Hall on the South Bank. Waterloo and Embankment are the most useful major stations for many journeys. Use TfL for the live route and allow extra time to cross the large Southbank Centre site.
Build the evening
Keep dinner on the South Bank or around Waterloo so the plan does not depend on a cross-city transfer. The event follows Letters to the Future programming; use the festival page to confirm any earlier activity independently.
Freshness and source
Checked against the direct Southbank Centre listing on 19 September 2026. LONNOW removes it from active discovery after the listed performance; the organiser remains the authority for capacity, cancellation and last-minute access changes.
