Friday, Jul 3 at 7:30 pm to Sunday, Jul 5 at 2 am
Overview

Cursed Monk Records and From The Depths presents Monk Fest! An annual CMR Showcase in aid of Temple Street Children's Hospital.

What can you expect?

Two nights of intense sonic experiences!

Friday night we will be kicking things off upstairs by throwing ourselves directly into the abyss with an in night of Industrial, Drone, Noise, and Gorenoise.

Saturday kicks off downstairs at 3pm with a live podcast from From The Depths Metal Podcast lads followed by a DJ set in the lane to get the pints flowing and the party started.

Doors will open at 5.45pm to welcome you upstairs for night of crushingly heavy music by bands from the Cursed Monk roster, and a raffle with some excellent prizes, including art, merch and music gear.

Why?

To honour the memory of my niece Ash, and to raise money for Temple St. Children's Hospital for the amazing work they do.
