Battlesnake

If you are looking for something different to do on a Sunday evening, the Australian metal band Battlesnake is playing at Concorde 2 on 9 August 2026. Formed in Sydney back in 2017, the group has built a reputation for high-energy live performances and a theatrical approach to their music. Their sound draws from a mix of rock and alternative metal, with influences that include bands like Queen, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath. It is worth noting that they have previously supported acts such as KISS, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Jane's Addiction, and they have released two albums to date: Battlesnake (2023) and The Rise and Demise of the Motorsteeple (2024).

The band’s current lineup features Sam Frank on vocals and guitar, Ben Frank and Daniel Willington on guitars, Nick Zammit on drums, Elliott Hitchcock on bass, and Billy O'key on keytar. The event is being presented by JOY. Regarding the timing, there is a slight variation in the listed start times, with Visit Brighton noting 19:00 and the official Concorde 2 website indicating 19:30, so it is worth keeping that window in mind when planning your arrival.

Tickets for the show are available from £16.75, including fees. As this is a venue-based event, there are specific policies regarding age restrictions. The show is open to those aged 14 and over. However, anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or older. If you are attending with a minor, the accompanying adult needs to provide valid identification, such as a passport or driving licence, and leave contact details at the door. Both the minor and the adult are required to wear an identification wristband throughout the event. It is important to be aware that the venue enforces this policy strictly, and failure to comply will result in entry being denied without a refund.
