About This Event

Pressure vs Pop Confessional runs on 23 December 2026 at Thekla in Bristol. This one-off Christmas Eve special pits two club nights against each other with indie and pop acts performing across both rooms. Tickets cost £7.00 and entry before 22:00 includes free drinks.

Two of Bristol's biggest club nights go head-to-head as we pit Pressure against Pop Confessional this December, for a one off Christmas Eve Eve special.

Thursday vs Saturday. Indie vs Pop. Alternative vs Club Bangers. Who will reign supreme? Expect all the perks of Pressure with 2-4-1 drinks and free entry before 22:00, PLUS a hefty handful of pop bangers in both rooms.

Arctic Monkeys to Sabrina Carpenter. Bring Me The Horizon to Backstreet Boys. Fontaines DC to Britney. Limp Bizkit to Vengaboys. This really is the best of both worlds - don't miss the battle of the century.

★ ✩ ★ ✞ POP CONFESSIONAL ✞

Join the congregation every Saturday at Thekla. Playing all your favourite guilty pop pleasures, all night long.

★ ✩ ★ ✞ Welcome everyone to the church of Pop Confessional. Your hosts for the evening’s sermon are the ministers of the Church of St. Pop Con, who will be spinning all your favourite Guilty Pop Pleasures until the early hours of Sunday morning, leaving you absolved of all your sins. They’ll bring you all the best new & old pop classics, from ABBA to Backstreet Boys, One Direction to Doja Cat, Britney to S-Club 7, not to forget our Lord and Saviour, Taylor Swift 🙏
