Descent – September 21, 2025

$10.00

9 PM to 1 AM | The Red Room, Vancouver
$10 advance tickets | $15 at the door
The nights are getting longer, the air is getting colder, and the urge to wear even more black is stronger than ever. As fall settles in, Descent returns to The Red Room to mark the changing season the best way we know how, with stomping boots, thick eyeliner, and a dancefloor full of kindred spirits.
This is the time of year when everything feels a little more haunted, and a little more alive. With Halloween creeping closer, Descent is the perfect place to ease into the season. Think of it as the unofficial start to spooky time, minus the kitsch, plus a fog machine.
For 18 years, Descent has been a fixture in Vancouver’s goth and industrial scene, offering a space for connection, movement, and expression. Resident DJs Surreal, Joshy Neurotic, and MissBDeath will keep the night pulsing with a mix of goth, industrial, EBM, darkwave, and more.
The Red Room delivers the familiar atmosphere — heavy sound, dramatic lighting, and just enough haze to blur the edges. Whether you’re dressed to impress or just here to vanish into the fog, Descent is where it all fits.
Advance tickets are $10, available now. Entry at the door is $15. Doors open at 9 PM and the night runs until 1 AM.
Fall is here. The shadows are stretching out. Come dance in them.
