2012 will be the 5th SOS Festival & just like every year so far, we'll yet again be looking to make the event bigger & better. A tough challenge since 2011 was just fantastic.. headline acts GUN & Fury UK, stunning performances from Exit State, Attica Rage, Falling Red, Velvet Star, Nightvision & many more - too many to mention just now. As well as GUN & Fury UK in 2011, SOS has been headlined previously by Blaze Bayley, Black Spiders & Heaven's Basement.

SOS Festival takes place annually at Radcliffe Civic Hall in Radcliffe, Manchester, in July. It's NOT to be confused with any other similarly-named festivals which have sprung up during the last couple of years.

BANDS WANTING TO PLAY : If you're in or represent a band wanting to play SOS Festival we're sorry but applications are now closed until 2013.
