Something new is emerging in Chelmsford.

On 27 June, AUTON opens its doors for the very first time.

A gathering of artists, machines, ideas and people brought together by a shared curiosity for electronic music and live performance.

Across the day and into the night, you'll be taken on a journey through immersive live electronics, analogue experimentation, evolving rhythms and dancefloor energy. From moments of deep listening to moments of collective movement, AUTON unfolds as a continuous exploration of sound.

This isn't simply a collection of performances.

It's the beginning of a new chapter. A new space for electronic arts in Chelmsford. A chance to experience something from its very first steps and help shape what comes next.

Whether you're a lifelong devotee of underground culture or simply curious to discover something different, AUTON invites you in.

The first chapter begins on 27 June.
