Elliot this is a club in Salford near the Uni that I went to an old school electro and breakdance night at. Check the 360 degree look at the room.

Also loads of peeps dancing in pics from the night on here

There is also an upstairs. It's the basement of an old mill that now houses a community centre and lots of appartments and spaces for Artists and creative types. Really cool underground venue.

your rite hun, i think they do have nite on saturdays. Thats the problem were facing. We need a venue thats able to fit 150 people, with seating and a dance floor and a dj box, in manchester . There are places out there its just finding em. I did hear of a few places that are in old railway arches, A while back. There not "clubs" as such but they hold private doo's if you know wot i mean? its just finding em and getting contact details? I have a meeting with a guy called shamus friday, he's a promoter in town. I'm hoping he can help also i have to go and see a couple of venues to see if there suitable? :D

I did a photo shoot in that exact room this time last year (Islington Mill)

We asked about holding a private party in there then, it is a top room... although there was a rat in there the size of a cat running.... no, walking around!!!

There were certain rules though about selling booze and and having door staff.

But if you charged £10 a head with this you could though booze in (buy shit loads of crates, or even bring your onw beer (as long as it's classed as a private party)

We would need to hire, Speakers and stuff though.

defo worth considering thou, would be very unique and it would feel really warehouse like, I love the idea of this!!!

I have the contact details of the fella who owns it.
