The Esplanade venue kicks off a busy May schedule with the return of local heroes Certain Death on Friday, May 2. They are supported by Big Iron and Dam Ratz.

On Saturday, May 10, the venue is turned over to Fife Metalfest - an all-day event for fans of the music genre.

The promoters have staged similar gigs in Dundee and Aberdeen, and now come to Fife.
