No Phones, No Phascists - monthly event details + updates

No Phones, No Phascists is a recurring free-entry, all-ages, counter-cultural community event in Holland Park West...

This page will be updated at least monthly to confirm details of the next event and to announce any last-minute changes/cancellations (please share the link to this page with anyone who doesn't use social media). We have a cosy, undercover space we can use for performances during wet weather, so we generally push ahead as planned even when it's cold or rainy.

Confirmed details for next event:

When: Friday, 25 September 2026, 4pm to 8:30pm
Where: Understory, 30 Joachim St, Holland Park West

Line-up includes: Stjep, USvsBUS, Alex Ward, and a dance party featuring music from the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Also...

• Open mic from 4pm to 5ish (first in, best dresssed) – PA system and basic drum kit provided (instruments can plug directly into PA if required)
• community announcements (anyone is welcome to jump up and say a few words about upcoming protest actions, meetings and non-profit projects)
• Art-making and zine-making under the house
• Home-cooked vego meals and warm chai available (gold coin donation) – please BYO bowl, cutlery and mug if you can

We're gathering in person to share music, art, radical ideas and good company. Join us for a free community event organised outside the confines of techno-capitalism in a backyard in Holland Park West.

Meet new people. Catch up with old friends. Soak up some poetry. Maybe even dance a little.

At a time of rising fascism, it's crucial we create and maintain free spaces where we can converge face-to-face and build community.

The 'no phones' theme isn't a hard-and-fast rule (it's ok to have a phone on you - just leave it in your pocket or bag as much as possible), but we encourage everyone to be present in the space and resist getting sucked into your device.

Nearest bus stop is Birdwood Rd at Wellers Hill (a short walk through Joachim St Park). More frequent bus services run via Logan Rd or Holland Park West bus station.

Most parts of the venue are wheelchair accessible but unfortunately the toilet is not DDA-compliant (we're working on this).
