CBGB's Phil Sandhaus says, "We welcome Marshall as the presenter of Hilly's Stageat the CBGB Festival this year. It's a full circle moment. The legendary Marshall Amp was a fixture at CBGB - used by legends like the Ramones to today's stars like Haywire, its iconic sound became an essential piece to the birth of the punk movement that still rings true today."

Frank Carter, Bikini Kill, Mannequin Pussy, and more.

Under the K Bridge Park was chosen for its industrial grit and cultural relevance in the heart of Brooklyn - festival-goers can expect a full day of music, vintage and new merch, expanded local food and drink options, and immersive CBGB installations, including Hilly's office, the famous bar, and the original stage from the club.

CBGB Festival pays tribute to New York City's gritty, sticker-covered past through the lens of modern punk. The lineups connect punk's originators with its fiercest future voices, all answering one core question: Who would be playing at CBGB today?
