GWAR performs live at Radio/East in Austin as part of their 2026 Fantastic Fest tour.
GWAR play Radio/East on Thursday, September 24, as part of their 2026 Fantastic Fest tour. The show starts at 7 PM, and the lineup is just them.
If you're not familiar, GWAR is a metal and punk band known for their costumes and their stage shows, which usually involve a good amount of theatrical chaos. They've been around for decades, and this stop in Austin is one of the dates on their 2026 tour. The tour is tied to Fantastic Fest, the film festival that takes over the city every September, so this is one of the music events happening around the festival.
Radio/East is at 3504 Montopolis Dr, just east of downtown. It's a club that hosts a mix of local and touring acts, and this is a standalone show rather than a festival showcase. The set is GWAR on their own, so there aren't any opening bands to work around—the night is built around them.
