Smooth the hair into a Mohawk and get the chains and studded leather ready for the 6th annual Punkfest at EV’s Youth Centre in Croydon on Friday 12 September.
Councillor Alex Makin said the annual Maroondah Punkfest has become one of Melbourne’s leading underage FReeZA gigs.
“The Maroondah Punkfest brings together some big names in the Australian punk scene while giving talented local bands a chance to perform before an enthusiastic audience,” said Cr Makin.
“This year’s lineup on the Main Stage at EV’s features five bands, with headliner act Yidcore returning to Melbourne following a successful tour in Israel and the release of their latest EP,” said Cr Makin.
Supporting Yidcore will be The Resignators, Ashleys Affair, Paris, and Two Cone Tyrone.
Maroondah Punkfest is an annual event organised by Maroondah Youth Services FReeZA group, Out Loud Audio.
Punkfest will run from 6.30pm to 11pm on Friday 12 September at EV’s Youth Centre, with tickets available at the door for $10 with a pass, or $12 without.
EV’s Youth Centre is located at 212 Mt Dandenong Road, Croydon.
This is an all ages, fully supervised, drug, alcohol and smoke free event. There are no passouts.

I’d love to see Alex with a Mohawk!
Hi Rob,
Punkfest is one of the many musical acts organised by Maroondah’s FReeZA group in conjunction with the Maroondah Youth Services Team at EV’s.
The FReeZA group provides an opportunity for young people aged between 15 and 25 to organise, plan and promote music and cultural events.
While you probably won’t see me at Punkfest with a mohawk they do have a variety of musical acts throughout the year.
Thanks,
Alex
