The 2025 ‘For The Children‘ festival lineup will feature sets from Trapped Under Ice, Foundation, Madball and more. That annual hardcore and metalcore-centric benefit event requires a new unwrapped toy for entry during each day, with those toys then going to needy children during the holiday season. This year’s festival will be held December 13th and 14th at The Belasco in Los Angeles, CA. The first wave of artists to be revealed include:
Trapped Under Ice
Foundation
Madball
The Mongoloids
Martyr AD
Bitter End
Fugitive
Missing Link
Vamachara (last show)
Division Of Mind
Donnybrook!

Additionally, it appears that a Boston, MA stop of the festival is planned. See the below admat for more info and a tease on what they have in store:
