PUNKFEST!

About Me

Shit loads of bands, ass loads of fun. Labour weekend 19th, 20th, 21st October o7. Wellington Car Club, Newtown, Wellington, New Zealand...cheap as chips.Venue:Wellington Car Club, Russell Terrace, Newtown (Berhampore). Russell Terrace comes off the roundabout at the south end (ie heading away from the city) of Newtown, about 3km south of Cuba Street. Travel along Russell Terrace for about 400 metres and the car club is the second road on the left; it's a private road/driveway that heads uphill. The driveway is 100 metres long, and has a couple of soccer fields next to it. If walking, look for the stencils on the ground.Getting There :You can catch the following buses:1: Get off on Rintoul Street, turn left into Herald St and then right onto Russell Terrace.9, 10, 11: These go through Newtown shops. Get off at the roundabout south of the shops and walk up Russell Terrace.12, 22, 23, 43, 44, 49: Get off at the Newtown shops and keep heading south. When you get to the roundabout, Russell Terrace is the road ahead uphill to the right.Please note: the gigs will finish after the last bus back into town. There is a taxi rank outside the New World supermarket at the Newtown shops.Security & Your Gear:We will be operating with reasonable security but we won't be operating a coat-check or bag-minding service. Keep an eye on your gear.No violent, sexist or abusive behaviour will be tolerated. If there are any problems, see someone at the door.This years shows are dedicated to our mate Slammy.
