Summer can be a pain. Your routine’s wrecked, half your friends are still away, everyone’s on holiday and suddenly no one wants to go out. Add to that the fact you blew your cash over Christmas and New Year, and the city feels dead..... fewer bands, fewer shows, not much to do.That’s where Ding Dong Lounge comes in. Two nights of pure rock to break the monotony, shake off the holiday haze, and remind you why live music matters.
It’s a two‑level party: DJs keep the main bar at Ding Dong Lounge alive, while upstairs Dead Witch hosts the bands.
FRIDAY 16 JAN – The Heavy Chapter
Steel Tap, Sovereign and guest to bring the riffs and raw power.
Downstairs, DJs R3y & Not Blitz Da Maori keep the floor moving all night.
SATURDAY 17 JAN – The Indie/Punk Chapter
Hazy Way, Missing HQ, and The Pillocks with melodic grit and summer‑night energy.
Meanwhile, DJ Partymoth and guests take over the main bar with high‑voltage sets.
Both events happen in the upstairs Dead Witch live music space at Ding Dong Lounge.
No need to wrangle your whole crew, just grab a presale ticket for $5 and step into the noise.
Rock Around the Weekend. Two nights. Six bands. DJs. Your summer escape.
