Give 'Em The Boot
About this Event
This brand new DIY punk cabaret party returns to Signature Brew Haggerston this September to round off summer in style while celebrating diverse and underrepresented talent across punk, drag and burlesque while creating accessible and inclusive spaces for artists and audiences.
Give 'Em The Boot creates space and brings together acts who are primarily women, working-class, from Global Majority backgrounds, disabled, LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent — artists who are often underrepresented on mainstream line-ups.
Launched earlier this year during the 50th anniversary of punk, the events celebrate the genre’s radical spirit of inclusion, community and DIY creativity.
Expect a night of loud music, rebellious performance and unapologetic creativity from some of the most exciting emerging voices in the scene.

Access at Give ’Em The Boot
Accessibility is central to the event to help ensure people of all backgrounds feel welcome and safe, with their access needs supported.
This is also a key priority for Signature Brew, and a core reason we’ve come together to deliver these shows.
Measures in place for the events include:
- British Sign Language (BSL) interpreters
- Live captions
- Audio description
- Additional access measures where possible
If you have an access requirement, please get in touch at with the word ACCESS in the subject line.
The event forms part of an Arts Council England-funded project led by Sandy Dhaliwal which will also launch the Routes Radicals zine and podcast later this year.
