Face Down - Face Down - Pop Punk, Metal, Emo Night London at Scala - Friday 4th December 2026 - Saturday 5th December 2026 - 11:00 pm until 4:00 am

MERRY GOTHMAS! London’s biggest Rock, Pop Punk, Emo, Metal and Alternative party is back this December for our annual Christmas special, and we're going all out for MERRY GOTHMAS at Scala! This month, we're seriously excited to welcome Hannah from Creeper to DJ and Mean Girl Liberty May for her Mean Girls routine to Face Down, joining our resident DJs for a huge night of Emo, Pop Punk, Rock and Alternative anthems, Christmas chaos and plenty of singalongs. We're also bringing you VANTAS performing LIVE, delivering a huge set packed with energy and everything you need to get the Christmas celebrations started. We'll also be having a SNOWBALL FIGHT! Upstairs in the Metal Room, Knocked For Six join us for a heavy as hell live performance. Bringing the riffs, breakdowns and absolute carnage, our Metal DJs will keep things heavy with Metalcore, Deathcore and some of the biggest tracks from across the heavier side of the alternative scene. Our Emo Karaoke is back too. Grab the mic, gather your mates and absolutely destroy your favourite Emo, Pop Punk and Alternative anthems in the best way possible. We're also teaming up with Marshall for a special Christmas Presents Giveaway! We'll be giving away some fantastic prizes throughout the night, so make sure you're there for your chance to get your hands on some early Christmas presents. You'll also find Black Willow Handmade Accessories bringing their alternative handmade accessories to the venue, with plenty to browse. And when the main event finishes, we're still not done. Our official Afterparty* keeps the Christmas chaos going with huge singalongs, genre-bending mashups, remixes and Alternative anthems right through until 6AM. So dig out your best festive alternative outfits, grab your mates and join us for one last huge Face Down London party of 2026! Tickets are purchased on the basis of the full event and not any individual artist, performer, band or act. *Afterparty tickets can be purchased separately (£2.50) during the night
