About

** New Headliner Announced JOSH MICKY (TRICK) !!! **

We are proud to present the very first Funkbox Project festival at Northshire, one of the most magical and original venues in the North East of England, ideally placed on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors and within 30 minutes of Teesside, Whitby and all surrounding areas. The first event of its type at this soon to be iconic venue, The Funkbox Project will be bringing a never seen before party covering 2 arena's.

The first arena is The Enchanted Barn - a massive, luxurious converted barn, full of magic and décor which will be a perfect home for the mayhem happening on the dance floor. Alongside this, the barn will be kitted out with a full Funktion One Soundsystem alongside mind blowing lighting and visuals, all of which will be guaranteed to take your breath away!

The second arena is Stone Henge. Set up away from the main arena, alongside its very own stone circle, this will also be fully kitted out with its own state of the art sound system, lighting and visuals. A perfect arena for diversity

A venue as original and unique as Northshire requires a line up of talent that compliments the surroundings and buys into the whole ethos of the festival. Hosting the whole event are The Funkbox DJs, a collective who have enjoyed a massive rise over the past few years with their unique, genre hopping, energetic party vibes, gaining quite a following after hosting their own events and supporting such other nights as *riffraff, Small Trees, Retro and Mode.

However, all events need a headliner, and we are lucky enough to have not 1 but 3 stars of the house and techno scene:

DEVSTAR

Making his North East debut, Devstar is one of the most respected technical DJs in the UK. His live performances and streaming videos have earned him thousands of fans due to his ability to combine his own productions alongside his technical ability that has to be seen and heard to be believed. With releases on the classic label Nervous, his own label Make Your Move and the iconic Toolroom, where he is also the head DJ coach. We don’t say it lightly when we know his performance at the Funkbox project will be guaranteed to blow you away.

LEE PENNINGTON

As the head don of *riffraff, one of the longest running underground club nights in the UK, Lee is no stranger to unique events, having being resident for the Zoo Project in Ibiza and playing parties all around the UK and internationally. With his own productions continually getting signed to multiple record labels over the past 20 years, Lee knows exactly how to bring the party , a true North East legend.

LEE WALKER

Fellow *riffraff resident, international DJ and another North East legend in his own right, Lee will also be performing in alongside Lee Pennington. With productions and releases signed to Defected, Ministry of Sound and Dirtybird, amongst countless others, the “Freak Like Me” global hitmaker will make sure we’re all spoilt for choice when it comes to word class performances.
