About This Event

Transmission, a Joy Division tribute act, will perform at The Continental on 25 September 2026. The event focuses on reproducing the specific sound of Joy Division. Pricing details are available on the website.

Devoted to recreating the atmosphere of a live JOY DIVISION gig, Transmission emulate the sound of one of the most inventive, evocative and influential groups of their era. Joy Division were formed in the late 1970s and dissolved in May 1980 after the suicide of lead singer Ian Curtis. The remaining members went on to form New Order and have achieved much critical and commercial success.

The influence of Joy Division, however, was far reaching. They were considered the pioneering band of the post-punk movement of the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Forty years on you can still relive the dark, cavernous sound of Joy Division through Transmission, the UK's number one tribute act.
