🎸🔥 CELL GAMES LIVE TONIGHT AT SUBSIDE! 🔥🎸

A three‑band lineup built for people who like their music with extra attitude.

CELL GAMES

Irish nu‑metal / alt‑metal from Dublin, originally formed as a remote studio project during the pandemic before evolving into a full four‑piece band. Their sound fuses early‑2000s nu‑metal energy with modern heaviness, drawing on influences from anime, cult horror, and existential themes.

If you like:
Slipknot, Korn and Kittie… You’ll love Cell Games.

Support from:

CRYPTID
SYNCH HOLE

Three bands, three flavours of heavy, all free entry.

If you’re into nu‑metal revival, industrial‑tinged heaviness, or groove‑driven metalcore, this lineup hits every corner of the spectrum!

Once Cell Games wrap up, Subside keeps the night rolling right through until 6am with our Industry & Emergency Services Night.

From 11pm, here’s what’s waiting for you:

• Free pool
• PS5 games
• Beer pong
• Huge discounts for blue‑light & industry workers
• DJ Big Dean bringing those house‑party vibes until sunrise

And the best part it’s FREE ENTRY

🔥🎉 SATURDAYS ARE WHAT WE DO BEST 🎉🔥

We are open and DJ Ferbz will be on the decks soon. As always, we’ve got drink deals running for you all night long.

Let’s play a game. Tag your best mate. If they don’t respond within thirty minutes, they owe you a Jägerbomb. Simple and fair 😉

We’re open until 6 am, so tonight is not the night for an early finish. It’s a night to make memories and collect stories you’ll be laughing about around the campfire later.

Tyler, our in‑house photographer, is out tonight. Grab him, show us how you party and you might find yourself in our Hall of Fame next week.

See you on the dance floor!
