Hello everyone!

Just trying to organise a replacement date for Britpop Curious? in Manchester...

Before we make a final decision, would you prefer to keep things as a late night club event (11pm start - 3am finish), or would you rather a daytime event (5/6pm start - 10pm finish)?

If you could chip in below in the comments, that'd be ever so helpful!

Hi everyone!

Sadly, next Saturday's event at Yes has been cancelled :-(

Apologies to those who were looking forward to it, but not enough people bought advance tickets to justify running it.

All ticket holders will receive a full refund within the next seven days - thank you so much for your support!

Don't worry though, we'll be back at some point in some form at a different venue later in the year.

In the meantime, please feel free to enjoy a Spotify playlist we made from an event held ten years ago back in March 2016...
