Kaleidoscopic UK Joins Campaign Calling for Marilyn Manson to Be Dropped from Wembley Performance
Kaleidoscopic UK is proud to stand alongside 12 other organisations, co-signing Cllr Anton Georgiou’s second letter to Wembley Stadium connected by EE, calling for Marilyn Manson to be dropped from the scheduled July 2027 performance supporting Slipknot.
Our founder Chris Steven Green travelled to London earlier today meet councillor Georgiou and discuss the campaign to stop Manson’s performance.
Why does this matter to us?
Because the messages we send through public platforms, endorsements and decisions matter. When allegations of abuse are raised, the voices and experiences of those who come forward must not be overlooked.
For survivors, seeing individuals accused of abuse continue to receive prominent public platforms can raise deeply difficult questions about accountability, whose voices are valued and whether their experiences are truly taken seriously.
We recognise the importance of due process and that allegations must be determined through the appropriate legal processes. However, organisations and venues also have a responsibility to consider the wider safeguarding implications and the message their decisions send.
This is bigger than one performance. It is about the culture we create, the standards we uphold and the example we set for women and girls, and for every victim-survivor who deserves to know that their experiences matter.
Survivors should never have to question whether their voices matter more than commercial interests or public entertainment.
We stand with survivors. We stand for accountability. And we will continue to challenge the normalisation of abuse.
Because silence and indifference are not neutrality.
Male Allies Challenging Sexism are one of 13 organisations who have co-signed Brent Cllr Anton Georgiou’s 2nd letter to Wembley Stadium connected by EE asking that Marilyn Manson is dropped from the scheduled performance in support of Slipknot in July 2027.
The founders of Male Allies Challenging Sexism (MACS) stated that publicly endorsing abusive men sends ”a harmful message. We are campaigning for Manson to be dropped from the scheduled performance of Slipknot at Wembley because of the testimonies by over a dozen women, his forthcoming sexual assault court case in November of 2027, and to secure the safety and wellbeing of concertgoers and women and girls across the UK.”
