Celebrating their 15th anniversary this year with a three-day event at their home of the B.E.C. Arena in Manchester, Outbreak Fest is widely recognised as the global hub for countercultural music within their yearly event in the north, their one-dayer at London’s Victoria Park (this year in collaboration with All Points East), and their promotion of some of the most exciting emerging names in hardcore, shoegaze, metal, rap, indie and so much more all year round. With their 15 year anniversary event just over two weeks away, Outbreak Fest today announce one more surprise; a special event featuring last year’s festival headliners Knocked Loose, currently on tour across stadiums with Metallica, to take place after midnight in Manchester on the Friday night/Saturday morning of the fest. The inaugural event under the new Outbreak At Night umbrella, the performance places the Grammy nominated Kentucky metalcore crew in one of the most unique settings of their career – Albert Hall – a former chapel that has been converted to one of the city’s most picturesque event spaces. Doors will open for the performance at 00:30, with support coming from acclaimed New York electro-punk band Lip Critic. The show will have no barrier. Tickets for the event go on sale this Wednesday 10th June at 10am BST. Artist and promoter presale will go live now with the password HIVEMIND. Final DAY tickets for the festival are on sale HERE, with Saturday sold out and extremely limited Friday and Sunday day tickets available. Don’t miss your chance to see one of the world’s most subversive modern heavy bands in a genuinely singular environment. Outbreak Fest: Twitter | Instagram | TikTok About Outbreak Fest:
Launched in 2011 as an independent, DIY one day festival in the north of England, Outbreak Fest has rapidly expanded in its 14 years of operating to become the premier event within the UK’s thriving counterculture. Initially launching as a home to hardcore, punk and metal, the sounds emanating from the festival have broadened to suit the ever-diversifying tastes of its audience; now playing host to the finest established and emerging names in the genres of its origins, but also hip hop, indie, shoegaze, emo, electronic and so much more. 2025 saw more scope to the reach of Outbreak Fest, with a triumphant one-day event in London’s Victoria Park alongside its usual two-day weekender at Manchester’s Bowlers Exhibition Centre. |
