About this event

Reggae Xmas 2026 ft Kiko Bun & Dom Nextmen is on Thursday 24 December 2026 at The Bullingdon, Oxford, with doors at 22:30. Tickets start at £11, including the booking fee.

KIKO BUN / DOM NEXTMEN COUNT SKYLARKIN / LITTLE NORLIE / CONSTANT JAMMIN Cowley Road's favourite festive tradition returns to rock The Bullingdon once more. Reggae Xmas has been an East Oxford yuletide institution for the past 30 years, starting life with the launch of The Zodiac in 1995 and lighting up just about every Christmas Eve since. For 2026 we are absolutely thrilled to be welcoming Dom Search (The Nextmen) and Kiko Bun to Reggae Xmas for the very first time. From the vibrant melting pot of North West London, Kiko Bun has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary reggae and dub, effortlessly bridging the genre's rich heritage with dancehall, soul, vintage R&B, and hip-hop. Running Kiko's riddims and a whole lot more is one half of production powerhouse and perennial party-starters The Nextmen: Dom Search. Support on the decks from Trojan Records turntablist Count Skylarkin, Reggae Xmas originators Little Norlie (Mackating Soundsystem) and Gladdy Wax's favourite ska vibesman, Constant Jammin (Ockard Riddim). * * * * * * * Skylarkin’ Soundsystem Christmas Eve at The Bullingdon 10:30pm-2am

WILL WILDE

The Bullingdon · Oxford

We are SO thrilled to have the fabulous Will Wilde return after a long gap. After years of hard work this looks like this is Will's year.. Having won Instrumentalist of the Year at this year's Blues Awards and even more exciting news, he has been chosen to play on the line up supporting Eric Clapton at Sandringham in August, alongside Ronnie Wood and Andy Fairweather Low. Far more than a traditional Blues harp player, Will Wilde is a force to be reckoned with - a phenomenal harmonica player with a voice to match. Will's intense harmonica style steals the spotlight from the traditional blues rock guitar, with a sound that owes as much to Gary Moore as it does to Sonny Boy Williamson. "I’m always looking to make new sounds with the harmonica, pushing its boundaries, trying to change people’s perception of it.” His You Tube videos brought him to the attention of blues rock guitar legend Walter Trout, who invited him to play on his album 'Broken', which went to number one on the Billboard Blues Album Chart. To return the favour, Walter played guitar on the title track and first single from Will's new album 'The Blues Is Still Alive'. The album reached number one on the IBBA Chart...

OMS Live presents The Samurai Seven

The Bullingdon · Oxford

The Samurai Seven formed in 1997 in Oxford, toured relentlessly and rose to prominence during that year’s Radio One Oxford Sound City event, where they impressed both John Peel and Steve Lamacq. The band recorded five sessions at Maida Vale Studios for John Peel, as well as recording the theme tune to Peel’s Channel Four TV show, “Sound of the Suburbs”. In 2025 the boys returned for some classic shows including Truck Festival, Charlbury Riverside Festival and a sellout show at Oxford’s famous Jericho Tavern, with new material being released in 2026. “It might easily turn out that we love The Samurai Seven” – John Peel, BBC Radio One “Speed-crazed pop bunnies making like The Buzzcocks ripping through The Beach Boys’ book of summer hits” – NME “The Samurai Seven are the punk rock band you can take home to mum; the scuzzy indie stars your kid sister can pin on her bedroom wall and adore. Quite possibly perfect, in other words” – NME “Pristine velocity pop… Spanning the distance between The Beatles first flourishing and the pop-centric nous of The Undertones” – Nightshift Magazine Follow The Samurai Seven here: https://www.facebook.com/the.samurai....

Mazawattee | English Mean Time | Album Launch Party

The Bullingdon · Oxford

Since surfacing in 2025, Oxford indie outfit Mazawattee have gone straight for the throttle. Surging from local gigs to a debut Glastonbury slot and a sold-out EP launch at The Bullingdon last year, they’ve rapidly established themselves as one of the city’s most exciting new acts. Blending 90s indie, alt-rock, and folk influences, their all-original sound pairs raw energy with rich dual harmonies. Backed by regular BBC 6 Music spins and a spot on BBC Introducing’s ‘Tracks of the Year’ with Waterslide, Mazawattee are set to drop their anticipated debut album in November 2026. Don't miss this night as the band celebrates the release of their debut album, English Mean Time. Threaded with themes of British nostalgia alongside fresh new singles, it promises an unmissable set.
