FAC51 The Haçienda at Depot Mayfield

House legends reclaim Mayfield for a night of Manchester club history — Van Helden, Pickering, Park, and more.

FAC51 The Haçienda at Depot Mayfield is a Warehouse Project night built out of Manchester club history. Armand Van Helden, Mike Pickering, Graeme Park and the rest of the bill read like a crate of the yellow flyers that used to do the advertising. The Haçienda itself is long gone. Mayfield, the old station goods yard behind Piccadilly, is the room that now holds this kind of scale: concrete, height, and a sound system pointed at a crowd that came to dance.

Saturday 5 December, from 9pm through to 5am. Check tickets, and book the ones you actually want rather than assuming the door will be kind. Dress for hours of dancing. A coat you can lose, shoes you can stand in, and no plan that involves leaving at midnight. The pleasure of this bill is the run of names who were in the original rooms, playing a warehouse full of people who learned the records later. Baring Street. The night is the point.
