New Annual: NM:PM : PUNK!

Free, loud and unapologetically local – this is Newcastle punk at full volume. NM:PM: PUNK! is a high-energy celebration of local punk culture with a stacked lineup to bring the noise. From Boudicca who’ve played with the likes of Amyl & The Sniffers and the Dead Kennedys, to the loud power trio No Reason, and the one-night-only comeback of cult favourites, Bitchcraft. Rounding it out, ska-punk legends, The Porkers, celebrate nearly 40 years of chaos with a rare, must-see set. 

Dive into DIY Alley to create zines, posters, badges and fashion, test your luck in a human-sized claw machine, and soak up vintage footage of the city’s most legendary gigs. With food trucks, a bar and merch on hand, it’s a full-sensory throwback and tribute all in one. 

Loud, fearless and fiercely DIY, Punk is a scene shaped by generations who made it happen on their own terms.
