Grotesque Fest IV Announces 20-Band Weekend in Olympia, Washington

Grotesque Fest IV, the fourth edition of the Olympia, Washington festival, takes place on Friday 13 and Saturday 14 November 2026 at The Mortuary, 414 Franklin St SE. Organiser Craig Moore of Grim Earth has booked twenty bands from Washington and Oregon across two days, from 4 pm to midnight, including LáGoon, Sorcia, Grim Earth, Across the Narrows, Division Street, Melancholia and Green River Thrillers. The all-ages event costs $20 for a day pass and $30 for a weekend pass. It is not connected to the similarly named Minneapolis festival. The bill centres on doom, sludge and extreme music with clear links to stoner rock and heavy psych.
