While we we’re all sad about not getting to spend Memorial Day weekend boiling in the Las Vegas heat for Punk Rock Bowling this year. we’re going to get a second chance with Fight to Unite in downtown Los Angeles next month. It’s going to be a banger of a weekend with a ton of your favorite bands, raising money for Siempra Unidos LA, supporting immigrants whose families have been torn apart by the atrocities committed by ICE.

This year's Supernova International Ska Festival brought acts from all over the world, including Jamaica, Mexico, and England, to the beaches of Hampton, VA, for an unforgettable weekend that even severe thunderstorms could not dampen! Such icons as Derrick Morgan, Yellowman, and Marcia Aitken graced the stages alongside third- and fourth-wave ska performers like Jackie Mendez and Catbite.

Supernova is back and bigger than ever, with a massive lineup spanning the roots of dancehall and rocksteady to the 4th wave. Join us on the beach in Hampton, Virginia, Sept. 12-13, for what is destined to be one for the ages!
