In addition, retail partners Fairdeal Music and Absolute Music will be offering visitors the chance to get their hands on some special show deals throughout the weekend.

For the first time at the show, West Midlands rock charity Metal For Good will be in attendance too. Having been awarded charitable status at the end of 2022, the organisation aims to use rock and metal as a force for good. They provide funding to incredible community groups that use music for positive social change and support groups which use music to improve wellbeing, address inequalities, and help young people to thrive.

Metal For Good can be found at stand 119, and will be raffling off some incredible prizes including a Marshall Code 25 Amp and a Laney Mini Amp amongst others.
