A general admission, standing-only party for ages 18+ celebrating the emo music scene and its cultural impact.
Emo Nite comes to Old National Centre on Saturday, October 24, at 9 PM. If you're not familiar, it's not a band and it's not a night of DJs; it's a party thrown for the music people love, built around the songs and the scene that shaped a generation. The whole night is general admission and standing-only, so you'll be on your feet with everyone else. It's an 18+ event, and the venue is at 502 N New Jersey St in Indianapolis.
Because it's a party and not a concert, the focus is on the music itself rather than a single act on stage. The organizers describe it as a night built around the songs and the scene that shaped a generation, so the setlist pulls from the era and the sound that defined the emo scene. It's a general admission, standing-only room, which means you're in the thick of it rather than watching from a seat.

If you grew up with those records, you know exactly what that means. It's a night for singing along to the songs you've known for years, with a crowd that knows them just as well. Since it's standing-only, it's more of a dance floor than a concert hall, and the 18+ age limit keeps it to an adult crowd. The party kicks off at 9 PM at the Old National Centre, 502 N New Jersey St, on Saturday, October 24.
