Manchester’s highly anticipated queer rave FREAK has announced its biggest event - an all-day party on Saturday 20th May at the new open-air club Progress Centre from 2 - 11 pm, followed by an afterparty at The Loft until 5 am. Head over to celebrate queer culture with a killer lineup of DJs. Tickets on sale now.

FREAK has been creating inclusive spaces for ravers since 2019, focusing on queer energy and a love of music while providing a safe environment for expression and for dancers to unite.

Alongside enjoying tunes spun by LGBTQIA+ talents including Job Jobse, Angel D'Lite and Jaye Ward, ticketholders can get stuck into a voguing workshop soundtracked by High Hoops and learn the basics of voguing by one of the most experienced vogue performers in the northwest, ReeRee and Daguwrlz.

If you’ve still got some party left in you, you can head to The Loft for the afterparty immediately after the day event and continue on until 5 am with Flo Massé, Kiss Me Again and Fastlove.
