West Coast Dissent's operators run on stolen Wadjuk Nyungar Boodja, and we pay our respects to elders past, present, and emerging. West Coast Dissent recognises the harm previously caused by - and that continues to be caused by - the colonial system, and we commit to decolonising the Boorloo and Walyalup punk scene.

West Coast Dissent is a shared calendar for punk, hardcore, and metal gigs in Boorloo ("Perth") and Walyalup ("Fremantle").

Anyone can submit a gig, and if it is approved by moderators it will be displayed publicly. This is run by volunteers, so be patient, but it should be approved quickly.

Always was, always will be.
Free Palestine.
Join your union.
