Shakedown 2013 will be a two-part party:

- a big gig at the Polish Eagle Club, Sherwood Rise, Nottingham
- an after-party until sunrise at a secret location, to be announced on the night.

We are a loose collection of people coming out of the underground music and activist scenes in Nottingham to resurrect the spirit of the original Shakedown Party in 2005, a mega DIY, underground party that served as a fundraiser for the anti-G8 mobilisation in Scotland and other grassroots projects. See Veggies report.

From Nottingham and around the country Shakedown will bring together the best soundsystems, party collectives, performers, visual artists and community groups for a big DIY all night party.

Shakedown is raising funds and awareness for:

- A week of action and information against the G8
- Nottingham Refugee Forum Destitution Fund
- Autonomous community projects in Nottingham

All the organisers, crew & artists are doing it for free!
