Manchester, UK; 14 January 2026: The organisers behind Manchester’s Goremageddon have unveiled full details for the 2026 pre-show and official afterparty, promising a full weekend of “absolute grind chaos”.
Ahead of the main festival at The Bread Shed on 21 March, the pre-show brings 55Gore and StuhlGäng to a limited-capacity venue, AATMA, on 20 March. The line-up is rounded out by GRUNK, Hideous Crawling Abomination, Shoplifterz, Megafart and LARSxULRICH. Due to the venue’s capacity, the organisers have issued a warning that tickets are already extremely limited.
The post-festival celebrations at Grand Central will feature live stunts from Merry’s Sideshow. In a shift from the musical assault, the afterparty will feature a “very special and intimate experience”. Attendees can expect stomach-churning live stunts, including The Human Blockhead, Wolf Trap and Mental Flossing.
The afterparty is free entry for all Goremageddon 2026 ticket holders and will conclude with a DJ spinning the most chaotic tracks for the “party animals” left standing.
Rancid Offal Promotions, the team behind Goremageddon, said: “We wanted to make sure the 2026 edition wasn't just a day of music, but a full weekend of insanity. The pre-show is a total grindhouse, and bringing Merry’s Sideshow into the mix for the afterparty adds that extra layer of shock that the grind scene lives for. Tickets for the main event are already nearing 50% sold. We sold out last year, so don’t leave it too late to join the carnage.”
The main event on 21 March at The Bread Shed remains the weekend’s focal point, featuring a stacked international line-up led by Taiwanese gore overlords Fatuous Rump in their exclusive UK debut.
