More Details

Halloween is still one night away. The dead are already awake.

On Friday 30 October, Ding Dong Lounge presents Night Before Halloween: Devil's Night, bringing live heavy music upstairs and dark sounds downstairs for a full night of Halloween mayhem.

Upstairs in Dead Witch, the stage belongs to Brackenwood Coven, Talismer, Doomscroll and guests, bringing the riffs, noise and darkness.

Downstairs at Ding Dong Lounge, DJ Bendezu and guests will be spinning a separate soundtrack throughout the night. Two floors, two sounds, one very bad night to be caught without a costume.

And when midnight strikes, Dead Witch turns into a Halloween karaoke nightmare. From 12AM, grab the mic and sing your way into Halloween with our special Halloween Karaoke.

COME DRESSED TO IMPRESS OR TERRIFY
