About Me

Boxwars was brought to the United Kingdom by two aussies with nothing better to do. Originating from Melbourne, Australia from 5 obsessive maniacs, Boxwars involves a bunch of recklace fools, a few stanley knives, an uncountable number of boxes and several rolls of packing tape resulting in a massive recycling epic spanning generations and involving hundreds.

Since the innaugaration of Boxwars UK in November 2005, Boxwars Uk has staged wars in clubs, gigs, in the street, box car racing, Country Boxwars and received press coverage in the Scotsman, Dazed and Confused, the Skinny, the Metro, FRONT Magazine, the Sunday Post, the List, the Evening News & others.

"Our paint brush is our stanley knives, the cardboard our paint
....the canvas our battlefield!".
