Robb’s MetalWorks personality Robb Chavez will moderate the panel, bringing more than 23 years of interviewing world-wide metal acts to guide the discussion.

Return to the Metal Capital will include a live performance from Byfist, some surprise video guests, and cool prizes and giveaways.

ADMISSION: Adults (18 – 64) $10; seniors (65+), minors (6-17), college students, and military $8; (children 0-5 free), UTSA and Alamo Colleges free.
