Cryfest Tickets

Cryfest is not a single artist, but a dynamic event series produced by FYM Productions led by DJ Steve EP. Known for bringing the iconic sounds of The Cure and The Smiths into a high-energy dance party experience, Cryfest has grown into a milestone event for fans of gothic alternative and post-punk nightlife. With a reputation built on consistent party vibes and a meticulous curation of tracks that bridge darkwave, indie, and classic 80s favorites, Cryfest has hosted numerous editions at notable venues and cultivated a loyal following across the U.S.

While Cryfest itself does not release a traditional discography—it's an event brand rather than a solo performing artist—fans can follow FYM Productions for updates, tour information, and future dates. The 16th anniversary noted in 2023 highlights the long-running nature of the series and its ongoing impact on the dance party scene.

For the 2026 season, Cryfest returns to Washington, DC with a highly anticipated show: Cryfest: The Cure vs The Smiths Dance Party at Black Cat DC on February 21, 2026. This date continues Cryfest’s legacy of blending nostalgic anthems with modern dance-floor energy in a venue known for its intimate, club-ready setting.
