S*M*A*S*H

SMASH are returning to the stage, and they have a date booked at The Prince Albert in Brighton on Saturday, 21 March 2026. For those who followed the scene in the 90s, the band emerged from Hertfordshire with a sound that was widely labelled as the 'new wave of the new wave'. Having reformed recently, they are continuing with the same approach that defined their earlier work. They describe their current output as 'pop punk without clean clothes' and 'political punk without clichés', maintaining the 'F*ck art lets rock' philosophy that has been central to their identity since they started.

The venue for this performance is The Prince Albert, located at 48 Trafalgar Street, BN1 4ED. It is a space that many in Brighton will recognise for its regular live music programming. The schedule for the evening is set with doors opening at 20:00, followed by the show starting at 20:30. As this is an 18+ event, you will need to be prepared to show ID if requested upon entry. It is a standard setup for a Saturday night gig in the city, providing a space for those interested in the punk-rock genre to see the trio perform live.

Regarding the logistics, tickets are available online, with prices generally sitting at £16.00. Some platforms may list them at £16.50, which accounts for the booking fees. You can secure your entry through sites like WeGotTickets, or check Twickets if you are looking for options from other fans.
