Prepare to swap your bassline shuffle for a touch of orchestral elegance as UK Garage godfather DJ Spoony brings his sensational Garage Classical show to Manchester’s O2 Apollo this year. Think garage classics, but transformed with a grandeur this music rarely receives. 

Teaming up with conductor Katie Chatburn and the esteemed Ignition Orchestra, Spoony - one-third of the legendary Dreem Teem - and Garage Classical have sold out esteemed venues from The Barbican to the Royal Albert Hall (twice); it’s thriving, and now with strings attached.

Tickets to Garage Classical at the O2 Apollo in Manchester are on sale now, but they won’t hang around. Don’t miss your chance to experience this unforgettable night. Click the link at the bottom of the page to secure yours today.

With such legendary tracks reimagined and performed live, it wouldn't be right not to get some special guests to join the ensemble. Previous performances have welcomed a star-studded cast of names like Craig David, Mike Skinner, Emeli Sande, Paloma Faith, Ms Dynamite, and So Solid Crew—so don’t be surprised if the Apollo stage transforms into a who’s-who of UK garage royalty as well.

Manchester already has one surprise special guest confirmed but as yet unannounced, so we'll leave it up to you to guess who that is. But Heartless Crew, Kele Le Roc, Lifford, MC Creed, Thomas Jules, and MC Ranking have also been confirmed! 

Tickets for their last shows have sold out in a matter of days, so don't wait - get your tickets for DJ Spoony’s Garage Classical live at Manchester O2 Apollo below now!
