Dimensions x The Loft: Special Guest b2b Special Guest

When: Sunday 11th June 2023

Where: The Loft MCR in Manchester

One of the best Manchester clubs welcomes you to head over for a rave that offers a slice of Dimensions Festival, an electronic fest in Croatia.

Dimensions have some of the hardest lineups in Europe and this event serves as a bit of a warm-up party for what’s to come later in the year in Croatia. Bringing breaks, electro, house, minimal, and UKG from Evan Baggs B2B an unknown special guest in a tiny venue, it’s going to be insane.

While we don’t know who the other special guest is yet, we know they’re on the lineup for Dimensions this year. Head over to get giddy for the fest or, if you aren’t going, to get as close to Dimensions as possible without the costly plane ticket.
