This June, Calgary Metalfest will adorn the confines of four venues to play host to a lengthy list of metal bands from around Alberta and even the world.
Organized by Big Nate Productions, Metalfest starts with a kickoff party at Vern’s on Jun 7th followed by a show at Dickens Pub on June 8th and concurrent shows at the New Black and the Distillery on June 9th. Bands include Oh Shit, Wormbox, Gales of Avalon, Stab Twist Pull, Bloated Pig, Exit Strategy, Blackest Sin, Kataplexis, We Found the Body and an international mystery band to play the Distillery.
