Manchester, get ready. Slapfunk Records and Animal Crossing are linking up for the ultimate Bank Holiday Block Party on Sunday, 4th May, taking over Progress and Square One with two stages, two venues, and over 25 artists ready and waiting to lock you into a serious groove.

This isn’t just another party - it’s a full-blown mini-festival, and trust us, with these two titans of the scene planning proceedings, and a lineup packed with this much talent, this is one you’ll be telling your grandkids about.

Tickets for Slapfunk & Animal Crossing Present The Bank Holiday Block Party go live at 6pm Thursday 6th March. To secure your spot, make sure to sign up to RemindMe at the bottom of this page!

 

A stacked lineup is on deck, with Coast2Coast, a TBA special guest, and a who’s-who of underground legends, including Dungeon Funk, Dungeon Meat B2B Samuel Deep, Anna Wall, The Ghost B2B Gene on Earth, Dr Banana, Laidlaw B2B Tristan Da Cunha, Christian AB, and Ogazón B2B Ryan Elliot. That’s just the tip of the iceberg - expect pure, unfiltered energy from start to finish.

And just when you think you’ve had enough, The Loft steps in to take things even deeper. The official afterparty will keep the grooves rolling with Samuel Deep B2B DJ Senc, Mella Dee, Morgan, Joey Jackson, and more. If your legs still work by then, congratulations - you’re built different.

This is one for the heads, a Bank Holiday rave of epic proportions. Tickets will fly, so make sure you're prepared - sign up below and secure your spot!
