MPF2026 is a go. The tenth Manchester Punk Festival in our eleven year existence!! Gigs eh, bloody hell.
We are proper buzzing to welcome one of our all time favourite bands, Strike Anywhere - Official ! back to Manchester for the first time since 2017 with an extra special set of ‘Change Is A Sound’ in full. Holy moly 🔥
Melodic hardcore veterans Ignite are finally making their MPF debut. Their self titled release in 2022 is up there with their best work so we couldn’t be happier that it’s finally happening 🟠
The wonderful No Trigger are joining the party with an exclusive UK set. Their latest release Dr. Album reminded us why we love them so much.
No one typifies the UK ska genre anymore than our friends in Lightyear Official. We’ve been desperate to have them back since their last appearance here in 2023 so here they are, pantomime horse in tow. We are huge fans of the incredible US ska scene too as we love to show you at MPF, so please welcome two of Bad Time Records’ finest in Kill Lincoln and 0mnig0ne 🎺
There are so many cool bands doing mega things here so we’ve invited a few of them to join the party again. Please welcome back Riskee and the Ridicule, The Menstrual Cramps, The JB Conspiracy and Dakka Sk**ks along with two of our favourites from right out west in Meryl Streek and Problem Patterns 👊
They will be joined by the incredible Dry Socket, CF98, Brassick, Ritual Error, From The Cradle To The Rave (Vocal/DJ set), Toodles & the Hectic Pity, Dead Bars, Dear Everyone, Currls, Nathy SG, Le Rox, Plot 32, Be Nice, Grail Guard, Last Edition, November, Prom, Gimic, Krupskaya, Clayface, Magnatas Court, Joseph Hooligan, Smoking Fingers and Kid Katharsis ❤️
Standard priced tickets along with charity and instalment options are available after the early tiers sold out in record time. Grab yours here: http://bit.ly/mpf2026
Much much more to come!
