Setting out to bring an incredible line up of local Manchester based talent alongside some of the biggest DJs operating at the moment, Exxposure's line up is an awesome display of DJing power, as some of the countries finest purveyors of deep house, old skool house, drum n bass, classics and UK Garage descend on Manchester for a festival experience of the highest order.

The Lost & found arena has in its roster some of the best Bowlers favourites, all adept at dispatching that famous old skool vibe better than anyone else. Stu Allan is set to perform an exclusive back to back with Mark XTC, whilst Ratpack are primed to deliver one of their infamous live sets, guaranteed to send the crowd wild. Liz Jameson and Angie Murphy will be on live PA duties whilst Ryan Angelis and John Rogers supply more old skool turntable wizardry to get lovers of house music’s golden age whipped into a frenzy.

The second arena brings things right up to date, with a deep house line up that takes some beating. Hector Couto of Hot Creations fame will be headlining with his world beating smooth, deep, soulful sound that has made him one of the genre’s most loved figures. Another scene stealer comes in the shape of A1 Bassline, a firm favourite on Fatboy Slim’s Southern Fried imprint and Claude Vonstroke and Justin Martin’s Dirtybird. His sets are full of vibrancy, bouncy party fodder tunes that rip through any dancefloor with insane results.

Dubstep and drum ‘n’ bass will be represented by Taxman and Eskman as well as a sea of other up and coming, obscenely talented DJs. Allister Whitehead will be at the helm for the Selectro Gold Arena, thrashing out vocal lead house classics throughout the night, supported by Danny T, Ollie B, Lewis Barlow and Stu Forster amongst others.

The UKG Arena will show off a righteous mixture of Live PA and DJ sets playing some of garage music’s finest records from the past and present, whilst the Climax and Selectro Arena will showcase some of the most potent beats and bass from the electro and jackin’ scene.

With so much on offer and six arenas crammed with mind melting DJs and artists, Exxposure is shaping up to be the ultimate dance music festival experience this year.
