In honour of their fallen founder Justin Nichol, who tragically passed away last month, Zed Vegas Bookings have announced a free tribute festival at the Bald Faced Stag.
Simply titled “Justinfest”, the Friday December 23 lineup of metal, punk and hardcore locals will take over the band room and front bar from 4pm till late to “party and have a beer for Justin”.
The night’s revelries will include a headlining set fromThe Beautiful Monumentas well as a massive array of ZVB acts, among them We May Fall, Like Royals, Chasing Everest, Mixtape For The Drive, Drowning Atlantis, Andy Illinois, Will Maisey, Ess-Em, Liberties, Hollow Heart and more.
The event comes a month after Nichol’s sudden passing, and presents the first true opportunity for the community he helped foster to “celebrate the life of a legend of the live music industry”, as the official event page puts it.
Entry to the 18+ festival is free, with donations welcome at the door and all proceeds going towards the ZVB Tour Van.
