Over the second weekend of November, far-right extremists have planned two separate evening concerts. Acts that explicitly promote racism, antisemitism and violence, and some who are linked to international neo-Nazi networks banned in several countries, will take the stage at an undisclosed location.

These concerts, titled “European Brotherhood” (Európai Testvériség) and “Hands Across the Sea,” respectively, will feature bands from Hungary, Greece, Poland and the United States.

In-person events are crucial to the neo-Nazi scene and related subcultures: the European Union (EU) law enforcement agency, Europol, noted they “place high value on physical meetings and group activities” in a report earlier this year.

Nicolas Potter, a researcher at the Amadeu Antonio Foundation, a German NGO which works to combat racism and far-right extremism, warned EU policymakers in an address to the Council of Europe earlier this year that far-right extremist events, including concerts, “serve as spaces of radicalisation, recruitment and fundraising.”
