Hey metalheads! Just a heads up that we won't be throwing the festival this year as it is really costly to do the work that needs to be done at this time. Thanks for your support these last couple of years...we had a blast!
We are going to put on some shows to keep MMF alive in the meantime, so if you wanna set something up give us a message. We still have some of those sweet shirts left too so if you want one hit us up!
Cheers 🤘

Thanks so much for another crazy fun Merciless adventure with us. Besides a couple mud mishaps it went pretty well considering the rain. Kudos to the fans that "stuck" around on Saturday! It was totally worth it. Thanks to the talented bands that played this year. You were mind blowing! Thanks to Megan and her sound partner Italo Vidito for their tireless work since Thursday and helping the bands sound great! Thanks to Metal Mouth Media, The Photo Ninja and Dom Arguzon for taking footage/ pics/ interviews.Thanks to Kyle and crew for feeding us.Thanks to the volunteers who helped us make this happen and thanks to the fans who make this all possible. We met so many cool people and caught up with so many reconnections. Thanks for making great memories that will last a lifetime!
If you have any pics please tag us! I'll be sharing pics and vids soon. If you played be sure to send your e-transfer email to us at [email protected].
THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT 🖤

Hey everybody!

Just a few last minute reminders:

It’s looking like rain for Saturday, but it’s going to be even better partying with you all in the rain! The stage / audience area will have coverage. But be sure to bring personal items to keep yourself comfortable. Tarps, towels, boots, umbrella, etc.

We will have drinking water available for everyone free of charge. If you plan to cook with water please bring your own.

We will have barbecue food available for sale and will have breakfast food available Saturday morning!

The closest store is the Petrocan in Brooklyn, which is also a NSLC.

When traveling in be sure to get off the 101 highway at the St. Croix exit 4 and not the Mount Uniacke exit 3. Be sure to follow google maps to avoid road closures. There will be a road closure sign you have to ignore when turning onto North River Road off the highway 236. We will put signs up as well so you know your on track.

See you all soon!

We are closing in on the festival date! This festival is situated in the middle of the forest, so you will need to make sure you prepare accordingly. You must provide your own essentials. There is a chance we will have a basic shower setup this year, at the least you’ll be able to hose each other down, no hot water though. If it rains be prepared for the mud and lots of it.

The gates will be opening at 4pm on Friday. You will need to have your ticket ready on your phone to be scanned, plus there will be a waiver to sign. Please do not bring any glass bottles, which is pretty standard at events like this. There are dogs and humans walking around and we don’t need sliced up feet.

If you can carpool it would be much appreciated, we had a hard time establishing a lot of parking due to the amount of rain we’ve had this year.

These are the coordinates for the location (there’s no actual address):

(45.1004421, -63.9018059)

You can copy and paste that into google maps or you can also search for Stanley Rifle Range, which is just past the festival grounds on the same road, Stanley Airport Road.

Please follow google maps for directions because there are road closures due to the floods and Google maps will automatically redirect you.

When you turn on to North River Road from Highway 236 there will be a big sign saying “Road Closed, Locals Only” just ignore that and carry on across the bridge.

You’re not going to want to miss out on The Strange & Bizzar East Coast Side Show at 8pm on Saturday night of the festival. It’s going to be epic!
