Doc'n Roll Film Festival 2026 returns to London this autumn for its 13th edition, bringing an exciting selection of music and arts documentaries to cinemas across the city. The festival is fiercely independent and rooted in a DIY spirit, celebrating the artists, outsiders, scenes and stories that shape music culture across genres, generations and musical movements from around the world. It began life in 2013 as the UK's Music & Arts Documentary Film Festival, an arts discovery fest championing outlier music, arts and subculture documentaries often ignored by risk-averse film programmers. The Garden Cinema screens festival films in partnership with Doc'n Roll, whose mission is discovering, exhibiting and championing compelling music documentaries and the performers, labels, scenes and stories they celebrate.
