Lock in a new event on Canberra’s Hip Hop calendar. An event built for the scene, for the fans and for the artists.

Main Event is a long overdue battle night for the capital. A knockout contest where local and interstate MC's can go head to head for a $1,000 winner takes all prize. Complementing the battle are live performances from exciting local and interstate artists.

Main Event round 1 on November 22nd will see Sydney battle veteran "The Tongue" making a visit to the capital aiming to take out the $1,000 prize. Standing in his way will be the battle hardened Greeley along with 6 other MC's.

MC registration is now open for the remaining 6 places - see www.kokyprik.com to enter for your chance at the $1,000 prize.

Prior to the final of the battle comp Main Event guests will be treated to a live performance from headline act The Tongue fresh from his national ""Surrender To Victory" tour dropping a full 60 minute set.

And on top of that we have local Canberra acts Big Dave (with Kitty B), Eitha, Troy Flawlezz and Collossuss keeping things live between rounds with DJ Treach holding it down on the 1's and 2's.
