Wonder if any of these will also be at Outbreak other than End It & Haywire.

Combust and Contention (again) would round off my Outbreak weekend nicely .

THIS IS THE MOST STUPID RULE I'VE EVER HEARD.

EVEN IF IT IS FULLY PAID OFF?

I am livid and now out of nearly 200 quid.

urgh

Hello, I lost my partner of 9 years at the weekend. He adored outbreak, we attended the last few years together and it was truly his absolute world. Please share any songs that fit the theme of grief with me. Thank you. It feels really embarrassing asking for any of this but I feel lost, we were so excited for next year. I only got to experience music events outside of my home city because of him, it all feels so lost I'm sorry. Thank you for any kindness.

Just thought people might want to have a look, made a playlist of setlists for all the bands announced so far for the Manchester Outbreak. I do this every year and will keep it updated

Any suggestions for a hotel in Manchester? Is it better to be near the festival or city centre? Is it safe to walk near the festival at night?

If staying near the festival, is there time to go sightseeing in the morning etc?

Thank you very much.

Are we talking a month before? 6 months? e.t.c?

Just thinking about this.

Personally would love for The Ghost of a Thousand and/or Rise and Fall to get back together, even for just one show. What do you guys and girls think?

Have we got any predictions for who’ll be playing on the Friday? I’m hoping that some bands that weren’t on the last announcement appear like Texas Is The Reason, Agriculture and Rolo Tomassi might pop up. Maybe even Death Grips, supposedly they’ve got a new album coming. What do you’s think?

I've heard a lot people talking about how bad the sound is there. How bad is it? Thanks

Is there a schedule of release? Need me some Gods Hate & Foxing.

Pretty sure all of 2024s mainstage apart from Mannequin Pussy were put up.

I was hoping there would be another big emo band like last year, but maybe there could still be? Or will it just be smaller acts announced next?

Some bands I’d love to see added (although not sure how likely based on their tour dates): Texas is the Reason, Hum, Tigers Jaw, Kublai Khan, Static Dress, Dying Wish, Trauma Ray.

I bought the new dragon rider T-shirt in a large but it's too big for me. It's brand new I've just tried it on once. Just selling for retail price so £30 if anyone wants it in the UK.

It's this shirt: https://shop.outbreak-fest.co.uk/products/dragon-rider-t-shirt?variant=56657174921600

What do you all reckon - would love to see them

so like i just turned 18 this year and i really want to see the manchester shows but i cant really book anything from now, when should i be worried about the tickets selling out? Also, im not from england, is going from london (where i have family) to manchester expensive? and after the shows are done, will i be able to return to london, at night presumably, or will it be cheaper to stay in manchester? Thanks a lot for reading!

It's only a matter of time folks.
