Speaking about performing at next year’s festival, KNOCKED LOOSE‘s Bryan Garris says, “we are excited to be a part of the Outbreak Fest line up. I’ve watched tons of videos from this fest and I’m stoked to experience it first hand.”

“Our aim was always to put something together to really show the diversity within the hardcore punk community. This is a festival for everyone, a place where people can feel welcomed, allowed to express themselves however they want, meet like minded people and above all have fun. This was our goal from the start and 10 years on we are still living by this,” adds the festival organisers.

Outbreak Fest will take place at Bowlers Exhibition Centre, Manchester from June 24th-26th 2021. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here.
