Novacrow at Stand By My- Charity Horror Festival

Sanctuary, Liverpool

Novacrow are happy to be the final band on at Stand By Me, Liverpool.

Liverpool Horror Club & Totally Tankered are coming together with Sanctuary Bar to you bring you “STAND BY ME”

STAND BY ME is a mini-fest happening on Saturday 29th September!

We’ll be bringing the alternative community and the horror crowd together for a big social party! Expect traders, short films, weird trailers, spooky stories, punk poetry, quizzes, prizes, comedy, and performers galore: burlesque, bands, DJs & metal karaoke! \m/,

This will be a fundraising event to showcase and support local charities close to our hearts. The first of these is Chasing The Stigma who work to normalise mental heath and have developed a fantastic resource called the Hub of Hope which is a database of organisations offering mental health support & advice [https://hubofhope.co.uk/]

STAND BY ME is a FREE event – all are welcome. If you wish to support our causes, we would be grateful for a suggested donation of £3 upon entry. We’ll also have raffle tickets on sale for a selection of boss prizes donated by local traders & businesses!
