We as Foundation members are a part of different subcultures that are extremely under developed compared to the rest of South Africa. Port Elizabeth has been excluded by most touring bands and international acts. The simple reason for this, we believe, is that there has never been anyone that could be contacted. No-one to help with pre-event organizing, no credible contact to help with venues, lodging, equipment, local advertising and/or all other hidden details that our supporters and fans might not know of.
We want to develop, build and advertise our subcultures. Through combining our forces and resources The Foundation is able to present professional events of the highest possible quality.
Locally, we want to expose the PE scene to national acts and in time, international acts. We aim to give local bands various opportunities to play at professionally organized events.
Nationally, we want to expose South Africa to Port Elizabeth’s local bands and we want national acts to visit Port Elizabeth and have an experience that would bring them and their friends back here time after time.
The Foundation uses previous shows income for the construction of future events, advertising, promotion as well as sponsorship toward Foundation bands.
