Inaugural KATHMANDU VALLEY HARDCORE FEST Announced!
The inaugural edition of the KATHMANDU VALLEY HARDCORE FEST is set to take place on 25 April 2026. This fest will feature seven punk and hardcore bands from Kathmandu Valley—PASO, CORRUPTED ABSTRACTION, TOTAL MENACE, SALAI, SIX COFFINS, NAINSOOK, and STRANGLE —and Eastern Nepal ska punk outfit, TOERAG.
The Kathmandu Valley Hardcore scene has, for over two decades, stood out in South Asia, but it has never been more active than in the last few years. Capturing this moment is UK photographer, Joe Winn, who will be shooting the fest as part of an upcoming documentary on the KVHC scene.
