D.O.D @ Secret Warehouse

When: Friday 31st January 2025

Where: Secret Warehouse, Manchester

D.O.D heads home to Manchester at the start of 2025. The event is shrouded in a sense of mystery as the warehouse location has never been used for a rave. It is time to christen this space with unrelenting energy and there's no better artist to lead the party. Make sure you get down to Manchester for this.
