Tis the season to be Sludgey!
Sludgemas returns with some bells on this year, as we’re hosting an all day Xmas party on Saturday, December 20th.
From Midday, join us at our Christmas market, where you can bag you (or your loved ones) some wonderful art, merch, vintage clothes or even a damn tattoo! While you peruse the selections of our incredible merchants, why not visit Santas Rotto, enjoy some of the live entertainment we’ll have going on or maybe slurp down a Sludgenog or two? They’re vegan, before you ask.
THEN, as the clock hits 4pm, join us next door for our Christmas party. The longest lineup for a music showcase we’ve had to date, the evening is sure to be a cracker. We’re stoked, you should be too.
We’ve decided to donate all our ticket sales to ACLAÍ Palestine this year and there will be stations in house where you can make a donation, if you’d like!
Note: Our Christmas market, running from 12pm-5pm is free entry. Any tickets purchased will gain you access to our Christmas party from 4pm onwards.
So mark your calendars and grab your green tinsel, this is certainly not one to miss! Tickets on sale now, link in bio
