DIY & Gotobeat Present...
The Xcerts & Jonique to play launch party for DIY’s March 2026 issue
Fresh from returning with their storming new single last month, the Brighton trio will join us at The Lexington next month.
As you may have guessed by now, we’re rather big fans of our print magazine, and figured it was about time that we celebrated it a little more. So - after a brilliant night celebrating with Picture Parlour and She’s In Parties back in November, and our explosive show with Demob Happy and Hot Face earlier this month - we’re throwing another issue launch party next month!
We’ve teamed up with live promoters Gotobeat for the launch of our forthcoming March 2026 issue, with incredible Brighton trio The Xcerts joining us for the fun. Fresh from returning with their stormer of a new single ‘do it to myself’, they’ll be taking to the stage at The Lexington on Monday 9th March to help usher in our new mag (in which they give us a little sneak preview of what more is to come!).
What’s more, we’re continuing to shine a light on some of our favourite new acts, and have invited Jonique - the new project from Fräulein’s Joni Samuels - to open up proceedings on the night.
Fancy coming along to The Lexington to help us celebrate? We know you want to! Tickets are priced at £11 plus booking fee, and you’ll receive your very own copy of the new issue on the night. Doors will open at 7pm, but please note, the show is aged 18+ only. Tickets are available from Gotobeat now. See you there!
