THE NATIONAL ANTI-FOLK FESTIVAL 2025 PRESENTS:

THE NAFF NEFF NIFF NOFF NUFF, an open mic for bands.

Set times:

7pm โ€“ The Buttlebrushes
8pm โ€“ Last Call
9pm โ€“ David Bath and the Hot Tubs
10pm โ€“ Tim Scanlan Trio

Smithโ€™s wants to provide a space for emerging bands to have a go, to practice their stagecraft, play for their friends/supporters and, hopefully, develop their audience. We reserve 50 tickets for fans of each band ($10 each, 70% going to the band concerned) and sell 50 tickets for those that want to stay the whole night ($20 each). 

Email us if youโ€™d like to take part in a future show.
