The indie rock band based out of Los Angeles, The Growlers, announced their eighth annual Beach Goth festival will occur at the Hollywood Palladium. Dates for the festival are October 31 and November 1.

Beach Goth is an annual music and arts festival that takes place in Orange County. It originated as a form of a music genre that was used to describe the Growlers, and it has since turned in to its own event! Previously played at the Los Angeles State Historic Park, this Halloween celebration is a return to the historic venue for the group. The last time they played at this venue was after their Valentine’s Day show in 2015 and their “Get Casual” tour stop in late 2018. The full festival lineup is yet to come. Past lineups have included artists such as The Voidz, The Drums, Gwar and Hatchie.

The Growlers is made up of singer Brooks Nielsen, guitarist Matt Taylor and keyboardist Kyle Straka. Prior to Beach Goth, the Growlers will hit the road for their summer North American tour which includes 20 shows and will begin in July in Phoenix. This tour comes in support of their latest release, Casual Acquaintances which was released in July of 2018.

For Beach Goth, tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 AM. Pre-sale begins tomorrow at 10 AM. Additionally, this is an all ages event and costumes are encouraged.
