Dead of Winter has never been a festival full of spectators.

It's a festival full of zombies, mutants, monsters, wasteland survivors and things that probably shouldn't be discussed in polite company.

๐Ÿ–ค WICKED. WONDERFUL. UNAPOLOGETIC.

Dead of Winter has always been about more than just the bands.

Enter Cult the Show - a celebration of the strange, the spectacular and the beautifully unconventional. Bringing together strip tease, drag, sideshow, performance art, kink culture and more, Cult The Show is a feast for the curious and a home for the unapologetically different.

Bold, theatrical and impossible to ignore, this is the kind of performance that embodies everything Dead of Winter has always stood for: creativity, freedom of expression and embracing the weird.

Bound together by sin, bad decisions and a shared love of all things infernal, the pair have made it their mission to recreate a little piece of Hell wherever they go...
