Molotov Princess played their first gig this year. They’ve already put on benefit shows for people in Sudan and Palestine and raised money for a member of the trans community, according to a profile by LOUD WOMEN. On Saturday 14 November, the Tokyo queer feminist punk collective has a 4.25pm set at Shinjuku MARZ.

It’s the first LOUD WOMEN festival in Asia. The UK-based organisation is putting it on with Tokyo’s Too Hot to Be Cool, with ten bands led by women or nonbinary musicians. Tokyo’s Pualala opens the afternoon and 18Fevers from Seoul has the last set at 9.25pm. Doors open at 2.30pm. All times are local. The full running order is on the festival website.

The organisers say festival profits will go to WildAct Vietnam, which works to protect wildlife and supports women working in conservation.
