The California Deathfest Prefest Party is the pre-show kickoff for the annual California Deathfest experience, held the night before the main festival. While not a standalone touring act, Prefest Party serves as a dedicated evening gatekeeper for metal fans heading into the CDF weekend. In 2024, the Prefest Party took place on October 11 at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, ahead of CDF VII’s Oct 12–13, 2024 run at Sweets Ballroom in Oakland. Tickets have included VIP packages and meet & greet options offered through third-party platforms, giving fans a chance to connect with the scene in a more intimate setting. This page provides a detailed overview of the Prefest Party, its connection to California Deathfest, and how to secure your seats for SF’s pre-show experience.
