About

The End of the Summer Fucking Blowout is an annual DIY hardcore, metal, and punk music festival held in West Oakland on the Sunday of Labor Day Weekend. Produced by Ash Sound Co the event brings together DIY punk values, professional sound production, quality food and beverages, and an affordable festival experience for the greater Bay Area music community.

Now in its second year, the Blowout is built around a summer backyard picnic vibe mixed with DIY punk, hardcore, and metal. It is loud, local, affordable, and community-driven, with professional-level production supporting the bands and the crowd.

This year, Ash Sound Co is teaming up with Chaotic Tendencies Presents and The Pound to assist with talent acquisition, promotion, and production.
