We’re kicking off October with indie legends The Wedding Present.

Formed in 1985, the band have remained one of the UK’s most loved indie acts for more than four decades, with records including George Best, Seamonsters and Take Fountain.

With support from Brother Dust, this is a big start to a packed month at Docks Academy.

Relive the golden era of emo, pop-punk and alternative rock as Paramoreish and Tekkin’ Back Sunday take over Docks Academy.

Paramoreish bring the biggest Paramore anthems, while Tekkin’ Back Sunday celebrate the sound of Taking Back Sunday. If the 2000s were your musical era, this one’s for you.

Prost! Docktoberfest returns for one final night on Saturday 3rd October, bringing a bit of Bavaria to Grimsby.

There’ll be German beer, live music from Scribble Victory and our Oompah band, plenty of lederhosen and a full evening of Oktoberfest celebrations.

This date is now completely sold out.

Jamie Hutchinson is back at Docks Academy with his latest show, Can My Mate Come? He’s Sound.

Tickets for this one have already been snapped up, so if you’re joining us, we’ll see you on Wednesday 7th October.

Following their sold-out Docks Academy show in 2025, The Luke Combs Experience return to Grimsby.

Expect a night dedicated to the songs of one of modern country music’s biggest names, performed by a tribute act that proved hugely popular with our crowd last time around.

Tickets are selling fast, so don’t leave this one too late.

Two of the biggest names in 2000s British pop-rock collide as MacBusted bring the music of McFly and Busted to Docks Academy.

Expect a nostalgia-heavy night packed with songs from both bands, taking you straight back to the days of Year 3000, Five Colours in Her Hair and beyond.

Pure Weller return to Docks Academy for a night celebrating the music of Paul Weller.

Covering his career from The Jam and The Style Council through to his solo material, it’s a full evening dedicated to the music of the Modfather.

Birmingham four-piece The Clause are coming to Grimsby for the first time on Friday 30th October.

Blending indie rock with influences from funk, rhythm and blues, the band combine ’60s swagger, ’80s groove and ’90s attitude with their own modern sound.

Catch them live at Docks Academy as we head into Halloween weekend.

Halloween starts early with an afternoon for the little monsters.

Our Docks Family Halloween Spooktacular takes over Docks Academy with music, games and plenty of Halloween fun for families.

Children’s tickets are £5 + fees, while adults can attend for free with a ticket. Under-1s don’t need a paid ticket.

Fancy dress is very much encouraged!

Once the kids have cleared out, it’s the grown-ups’ turn.

We’re finishing October with the Docks Halloween Party, featuring a live set from SHINES plus DJ Steve Rusling keeping things going into the night.

There’ll also be prizes for the best costumes, so this isn’t the night to turn up in your everyday clothes and claim you’ve come as yourself.
