Second Lineup Announcement Made For 2026 ‘Northwest Hardcore Fest’

The 2026 Northwest Hardcore Fest has unveiled its second round of bands, filling out a stacked two‑day bill at The Off Beat in Portland, Oregon. With the headlining act still pending, the current roster already includes a strong cross‑section of East Coast, West Coast, and Pacific Northwest hardcore lifers plus newcomers.

Among the officially confirmed names so far are All Out War, Balmora, Dead Heat, Point Of Contact, Scalp, Doomsday, Firestarter, Witness Chamber, Barrio Slamx, and SERAPHXGAG, plus several other acts yet to be individually named in the ad‑style announcement. The full current slate can be viewed via the festival’s Instagram admat (linked in the original post).

The fest is set for August 1–2 at The Off Beat (8440 N Lombard St, Portland, OR), with two‑day tickets available now through the festival’s official channels. Organizers have promised a final full lineup reveal in May, once the still‑unannounced headliner and any remaining open slots are locked in.
