The 100 Club Punk Festival was a two day event held at the 100 Club, a (usually) jazz-oriented venue in Oxford Street, London, on the 20th and 21st of September 1976. Arranged by Sex Pistols manager Malcolm Mc Laren, the gig showcased not only the aforementioned band, but a number of other acts aligned to the, at the time, very new UK punk rock movement. For many, it was their first opportunity to play before a live audience.
