Emo Night

After January’s packed-out chaos, Emo Night Aotearoa returns to Ding Dong Lounge this May—louder, sadder, and sweatier than ever. Upstairs, Kirikiriroa’s Blink-182 tribute band Dumpweed brings the nostalgia with a stacked set of pop-punk classics, while downstairs, DJs spin all your favourite emo and pop punk anthems from MCR, Paramore, and The Used to Saosin, Silverstein, and Neck Deep. Early bird tickets are $15 until April 11, then $25 general admission or $30 on the door—presales will sell out, so don’t wait. R18.
