Camden Assembly - No Sleep Still Hellfest - Showcase

The iconic Camden Assembly will host fifteen bands later this month in an action-packed week, which will see the winning band playing a set at Hellfest Festival in Clisson, France. Hosted by Hellfest, No Sleep Till Hellfest is the first new talent competition open to UK grassroots punk and hardcore bands.

“Living locally in Camden and having worked for Hellfest for 14 years, I always wanted to do something between the UK and France,” Nabila Slama, Project Manager at Hellfest Productions, told MetalTalk. “And where better to host the contest than in the heart of punk’s capital – London!”

Following a gruelling shortlisting process of over 250 applicants, organisers at Hellfest are now set to showcase the best new talent that the UK has to offer in the renowned Camden Assembly.
