BALTIMORE SUBSCAPE 2025

OCT 10-12, 2025, BALTIMORE, MD

SubScape is a FREE, multi-day, multi-stage celebration of the subversive elements fueling Baltimore’s bleeding-edge underground. 3 Days, 4 Stages, 50+ Bands, throughout Artscape weekend at local independent venues.

Baltimore has ALWAYS been a city of transcendent, unwieldy extremes. SubScape is a free, weekend-long showcase of that iconic underground. This year’s fest peels deep into the underbelly, exposing a DIY tunnel just for the freaks. CHECK BACK SOON FOR BAND ANNOUNCMENTS AND OTHER INFO.
