2026 was just the beginning. We return in 2027 with an expanded program of events, installations, workshops and performances.
Brought to you by Mettle Works, Control Voltage and Resonance, AUTON | Electronic Arts Festival is an invitation to challenge your ears, broaden your horizons, expand your knowledge and immerse yourself in the pure and unique world of electronic music, all within the inspiring industrial embrace of the Mettle Works warehouse.
AUTON | Electronic Arts Festival is back at Mettle Works for 2027. Our date for next year has been announced.
We’re building on the incredible experiences of 2026 with an expanded program featuring events, workshops, installations and performances.
We came with a plan, you came with a sense of wonder, a thirst for something new and an appetite for discovery and, together, we all travelled.
From the very start a dialogue was opened between artist and audience, audience and artist. An exchange of inspiration in an industrial cathedral of sound.
The time is almost upon us. The wait is almost over. The anticipation is palpable.
The birth of a new dawn in electronic arts is just 2 days away.
We’ve hand picked a selection of incredible artists and performers and this is the all important information on who’s playing when.
Last night Andrew Wright and Matt Gates rocked up to City Sounds Radio to be guests on the Transmission Show with Paul Dupree.
During the interview they discussed how AUTON came about, what they were most looking forward to from the festival and the plans for future editions.
