Far from its Los Angeles dive bar beginnings, Emo Nite will make its UK debut this summer.

Now spread to over 30 cities across the United States, Emo Nite LA will go international to host the Slam Dunk Festival Pre-Party at O2 Islington Academy on May 25th.

Promising a night of the unexpected soundtracked to ‘emo anthems’ from across the years, Emo Nite began its life back in LA in 2014 with an intimate event in a Dive Bar.

The secret was soon uncovered and now Emo Nite spans across 30 cities across the United States.

For its UK launch, the first acts set for DJ sets have been unveiled as Creeper, Brian MacDonald (PVRIS), John Feldmann (Goldfinger) and Grayscale, with more to be announced.

Better yet, fans going to Slam Dunk Festival South can exchange their wristband at the party to skip the queues on the festival day.

Tickets for Emo Nite LA Presents… are now on sale, priced at £10 via Luna Tickets.
