Read full details

Pussy Riot brings their theatrical protest performance "Riot Days" to Karlsruhe, supported by New Age Doom. The show draws on the group's real-life story of defiance, including their notorious 2012 performance in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, which led to the arrest and imprisonment of members Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina.

Attendees can expect a raw, politically charged blend of punk music and activist theatre. The performance recounts the group's legal battles and imprisonment, offering a visceral look at their fight against state oppression. Support act New Age Doom sets the tone with their own heavy, confrontational sound.

This is a rare chance to witness a live piece of contemporary protest history, delivered by artists who have faced real-world consequences for their art. The evening promises to be both a concert and a powerful statement on freedom of expression.
