𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗡 𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗙𝗘𝗦𝗧 2026:
Glasgow’s ONLY punk weekender.
We are back again, bigger AND better with a new venue, a whole extra day plus a dedicated afterparty both nights!
This September sees the return of Glasgow's only dedicated punk weekender as Mean City Fest storms Slay on the 18th &19th and Audio on the 20th, with all profits going to the beatson cancer charity, a cause close to so many of our hearts.
A celebration of punk’s power to challenge, with a really strong grassroots line up rather than a nostalgia trip, Mean City Fest features over a dozen bands across three days - from anarcho pioneers to rising young upstarts - all rallying for a vital cause. With tickets just £45 for the weekend, the same price as last year's event with an extra day added and cheaper day tickets at £15 Friday / £30 Saturday / £10 Sunday, this is grassroots music for a grassroots mission.
