ONE DAY TO GO ✂️ 🍎

Set times for our link up with ._ tomorrow are now live.

Online tickets are still available through the link in our bio, priced at just £5.

We’ll be saving some on the door, cash and card accepted - £7 entry.

Pre-party starts at 6pm, it’d be lovely to see so many of you as usual down early supporting the DJ’s and the venue. We think the pre-party makes a huge difference to the whole night so come make some new mates and have a dance.

Basement opens at 10pm, you must have a valid ticket for entry. Last entry 1am.

18+, please have ID ready just in case

We’re just two groups of mates who love tunes and throwing parties and have been doing it for quite a bit, so come down, get stuck in and join us tomorrow at our favourite place in Manchester ❤️

Any issues, drop us a message 👋

We’ll be throwing things down on The Sanctuary Stage on the Friday for our fifth appearance at the festival.

ITW has been a huge party of our journey, first playing the festival back in 2018 so it’s a huge honour to be invited back this year.

Well what can we say about that 😂🤷🏼

Some seriously silly scenes unfolded in that basement a few weeks back and we couldn’t be more grateful to every single one of you who packed out the basement and brought energy like we’ve never seen before.

Huge thanks to all the DJ’s, it was a match made in heaven for us with and being two big favourites of ours and they delivered just as we expected.

ONQ founder got daft in the vinyls, shoutout the front left topless crew 30 man deep 😂

Our residents set it up nicely after a lovely pre party social with perfect sets from all involved.

That one was special for us, and most importantly it was fun, with proper CTR energy from start to finish, no posing, no messing, just having it clean off with new mates to good music.

Big thanks to all the staff at Stage & Radio as always for allowing us to make the place our home.

We’ve got a few festival appearances to come now, first .events with Locky & Mad.again on headline duties then we return to out beloved with the best line up for an independent festival we’ve seen all year, before we return to our NQ home on 13th September.

Drop us a message if you wanna join the gang at any of the festivals, but for now, take it easy and Up the Rug ✂️✂️
