Fourth Annual Fucked Up Fest to Invade Toronto This Halloween
9/15/2009 By Josiah Hughes

In what is becoming a beloved yearly ritual for attendees — and a frustrating missed opportunity for the rest of the world — the Fucked Up Fest has made a name for itself by playing host to some of the world’s most interesting hardcore acts. And with autumn just around the corner, the Toronto-based event is gearing up for its fourth year.

Naturally, the event is headlined by Fucked Up, but will also include performances from Cro-Mags, Iron Lung, Brutal Knights, Rival Mob, Waste Management, Free Spirit, Nomos, Urban Blight, Force Fed, Omegas, Mature Situations, Metz and more.

The full band list and venue information has not yet been announced, but the shows will be taking place in downtown Toronto on October 29, 30 and 31. Stay tuned for details.

Thanks to our friends at Punknews for the tip.
