🚨 THIS SATURDAY. NO EXCUSES. 🚨

The Desert Rat Punk Fest is coming for Albuquerque on Saturday, August 8th, taking over Launchpad + Insideout with 22 bands ready to tear it up‼️

⚡ 22 bands.
💥 That's $2.27 per band with an advance ticket.
🎟️ Tickets are on sale now!

Yeah, you can wait and buy at the door... but you'll pay more. Don't say we didn't warn you.

This all goes down during the 100th Anniversary of Route 66, so while everyone else is celebrating the Mother Road, we're doing it the only way we know how. Fast, Loud, and unapologetically DIY.

No barricades between you and the bands. No corporate festival nonsense. Just a grassroots, woman-founded punk fest built by people who give a damn about the scene.

Grab your crew. Buy your ticket. Show up.

🎟️ www.desertratpunk.com 🌵🐀

See you in the pit.
