New pop punk festival launching in York this summer

By Penny Bennett

Starring American hardcore punk rockers A Wilhelm Scream, and one of the only 2018 UK appearances from Teenage Bottlerocket, plans have just been announced for a new festival launching in 2018 called “Pile Up Festival”.

Hosted at Fibbers, the two-day event is running on Friday June 22nd and Saturday June 23rd, with a possible special 3rd date added if tickets sell out before March, with weekend ticket buyers getting the exclusive third day for free.

Metalcore giants Oceans Ate Alaska, and UK rising stars Napoleon are in main support on the Saturday.  And York locals will haves something to shout about, as hometown heroes InVisions are complementing the line-up. On Sunday Our Hollow Our Home, Silent Screams and Siamese are all on the bill.

As well as giving music fans a new festival in the North East, organisers Riff Media are also aiming to help the local homeless, by pledging that profits will be used to purchase supplies and goods to help those in need.

Tickets are available here and for a limited time use the promo code RIFFMAS to get money off!
