Allstars sees the legendary Manchester club night continue with the grooves that made it a nightlife staple, but with a fresh live twist, with tracks reimagined for the dancefloor and injected with energy. 

Doors open at 5pm, the performance starts at 6pm, and the night ends around 11pm. 

Funkademia Allstars comes to Manchester’s New Century Kitchen this Saturday (25th April), and entry is free - just turn up. Head down to tear up the dancefloor to pure bangers until late.
