"Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio."
Strange Events and The Arena proudly present an evening dedicated to the haunting, seminal sounds of Joy Division.
Headlining the night is Transmission, widely considered the UK’s leading tribute to the legacy of Ian Curtis. This isn't just a performance; it’s a meticulous recreation of the raw energy, brooding basslines, and visceral atmosphere that defined the post-punk era. Expect a setlist spanning the classics, from the frantic pulse of Digital to the timeless Love Will Tear Us Apart.
Once the live show concludes, the night is far from over. The Strange Crewe DJs (Strange Events) take over the decks for an immersive afterparty, spinning the very best in post-punk, darkwave, and alternative anthems until the early hours.
