Read full details
Louder Than War Live brings the spirit of the independent music website and magazine to the stage at Manchester Academy. Founded by musician and journalist John Robb in 2010, Louder Than War has grown from a news and reviews platform into a record label and radio station, championing lesser-known artists. This edition of the festival continues that mission with a headline set from indie rock stalwarts The Wedding Present.
Attendees can expect a night of guitar-driven energy and alternative music in the intimate setting of Manchester Academy. The event reflects the publication's long-standing commitment to live music, having launched its own record label in 2014 and a 24/7 internet radio station in 2021. It's a chance to experience the community that Louder Than War has built over more than a decade.
