One stage. Ten bands. Feel the noise. Rock the City!
On Friday 5th September, Nelson's youth music scene isn't just knocking on the door of the Theatre Royal—they're taking it over! For one night only, COMMOTION and Nelson City Council are handing the legendary Theatre Royal stage over to the next generation.

Featuring: Shedheads, Imperfect Circles, Salisbury Road, Recovery, Triple Stuffed, Flipswitch, Lodestone, Armadillo, Zinger and Silver Lining.
