Who else here is from Europe/ UK?
If so, what fests and shows are you planning on going to?
Anyone else planning on coming to visit?

I've lived in Germany for the past 10 years for work/school. Now in London until end of May for research. I've been here a few times before but is there anything cool to do? I'm right new Fulham Broadway and in Kew/Richmond a lot for work. I'll be back again from Sept.-Dec again for work, too.
Besides IG, are there any good listenings for shows?

I’m from Sheffield. Our DIY space got shut down a couple of years back but we’ll have a new one up and running soon hopefully, so shoot me a message if you want somewhere to play or if you’re over here for any other reason. In terms of festivals, the line up for K-town looks wild already this year but I’m not gonna be around for it!

Yo wassup, I'm from Paris, living in Copenhagen.
Was considering going to Outbreak this year, but there's too many bands I don't care about so I won't.
There's a few upcoming tours that I'm gonna be missing out on, Year Of The Knife/Servitude for example. The No Turning Back/Jesus Piece/CBK tour is also coming here, but I'll be out of town that day. Otherwise I'm seeing Sleaford Mods in June, and then maybe attending the local Murda Twinz Getdown in July with Negative Approach, Wisdom In Chains etc... if I'm not out traveling for the holidays.

K-Town line-up this year looks decent I think, but there's also a bunch of bands I have no clue about, still going to go like every year because it's a fun festival and you gotta enjoy what's happening in your town.

Belgium. The Funhouse III is where it's at for the (very) near future.

There is a page called hardcore gigs UK on FB. :) Also if you want, send me a link to your fb as I am always accepting invites on there for shows.

Checking in from Wicklow/Dublin here. I haven't been to a hardcore show in about 4-5 years lol. I've got tickets for two festivals this summer: Going to the first day of this. Excited for Skepta, Danny Brown and Earl Sweatshirt. And this, mostly for A$AP Rocky, Chance, Denzel, AJ Tracey and Vince Staples. I fully anticipate on being one of the oldest person at this at age 27. I'm hoping some better acts get announced in the next release.

Another Sheffield head here. Though Leeds has been the main spot for meat and potatoes DIY HC round here for quite a while.
Got tickets for the Have Heart show, and i'll probably end up going to Outbreak since i missed Cold World when they were over last year. I think Cult Leader and YOTK are over in the next few months too.

You guys seems to have a cool scene, Spirit Crusher is one of the best euro bands right now, really stoked for that LP! Exposure and Domain had some cool demos as well.
Isn't Total Reality from there too? Anyway let me know if you're going to K-Town, I'll buy you a beer or a sports-cola!

Not that much into Stages Of Faith but the two others are def some of the bests right now. Just ordered the Frame Of Mind LP last monday, I'm excited to hear it! Quality Control really is the place for current UKHC in my apinion, even though I do enjoy some bands from the Rucktion roaster too. Neutral Words Records does some good things too, smaller label but you can't tell he's really into the bands he's putting out.

I love Farside, so Stages in Faith really do it for me. Excited to see them at that Have Heart show.

From the States but I want to get back to Paris and Berlin ASAP. America is a cool culture generator but European living generally seems more relaxed.
