Saturday HardCore/Punk Matinee

NOTE: We're no longer doing the Matinee at our Rivington Street location as we prepare for demolition and the construction of our new facility. ABC No Rio events will continue "in exile" at other venues and in collaboration with other organizations.

For over twenty-five years ABC No Rio's Saturday Matinee has been run by a volunteer collective dedicated to providing an all-ages venue for the independent punk and hardcore music scene.

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive scene where all can feel welcome and comfortable, regardless of race, gender or sexual identity. We do not book racist, sexist or homophobic bands.
