Jungle Bells returns to The Masquerade on December 12–13 with its most ambitious edition to date—tripling its artist roster, elevating production across the board, and unveiling four reimagined rooms plus two late-night After Hours events. What started decades ago as a photocopied-flyer party has grown into North America’s longest-running independently produced drum & bass festival, and this year signals its most transformative leap forward.
Spread across 70+ artists, four custom-built stages, and an immersive production framework crafted by Beware Productions and Define Everything Future, Jungle Bells 2025 positions itself as a definitive centerpiece of U.S. DnB culture. Friday introduces a new dual-room format, while Saturday detonates into a full four-stage explosion—Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, and Altar—each upgraded with LED rigs, floating DJ booths, custom projection environments, and reinforced Funktion-One sound.

A Festival Built by Atlanta’s Creative Core
What sets Jungle Bells apart is its deep connection to Atlanta’s underground community—the artists, builders, and collectives who fuel the city’s creative pulse. This year, that network steps forward in force:
- Beware Productions leads the festival’s most advanced production build yet.
- DEF installs custom Art Deco structures across the venue.
- Imagine Audio curates the Altar Room.
- Torch continues its decade-long tradition of elevating local DnB talent.
