Metal Merch Day was established for rockers and metal-heads across the UK to wear their favourite merch with pride in support of Metal For Good. No gatekeeping here, no genre-shaming, its all about community and pride in wearing a piece of clothing that means something to you, and all for the sake of an excellent cause. Metal Merch Day was launched in 2023 by Metal For Good, the charity making a positive difference through supporting communities using the positive values of rock, metal and other alternative subcultures. Last year the charity raised £10,000 and garnered a huge amount of support in order to do this.
So when is it? Metal Merch Day is on the 18th October but there is already a number of ways to get involved and MFG will be celebrating and promoting this all month long. Metal For Good are encouraging that for those taking part to donate £5 or more to the charity, simple as that. Other events that have taken place include metal quizzes, gigs, sorting, selling of clothes and donating of earnings and loads more. Its all about awareness and raising money for a good cause.
If that’s not enough, Metal For Good even have their own metal merch that you could don in the name of metal. There’s even a specific Metal Merch Day 2024 exclusive design (which is gnarly af).
So wear it proud and wear it loud. Find out the further details on the Metal For Good website page and get involved!
