Official press release:
1981 Clothing has announced the followup to last year's first ever Bringin' It Back For The Kids Fest, brought together to celebrate all aspects of hardcore with an extra focus on overall good times and fun for all who attend, will feature roughly 30 bands as well as various games and contests, and is scheduled to take place on October 12th and 13th at Rocketown in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Weekend passes are $50 while individual day tickets are $30 each. Tickets for the event can be purchased here.
Says festival curator Cliff Wiener, "We're back with more of that fun atmosphere and positive attitude. This year we're going to have hardcore karaoke, break dance contests, break dancing in the pit, and our typical dodge ball tournament plus a few surprises. We also have more reunions planned that we can't talk about just yet (you know, other than the one we already announced), but let's just say if you're into Miami hardcore circa the 90s, you need to be here."
