The Warehouse Project is back with another belter. Belfast’s BICEP, with their ethereal tracks like ‘Glue’ and ‘Apricots’, bring CHROMA AV to the iconic series in December. 

Since it’s The Warehouse Project, they naturally had to bring along a bunch of incredible DJs for support. So they’ve enlisted Mall Grab, Daphni, Helena Hauff, Bubble Love (Ross From Friends), SHERELLE, Elkka (live), Moxie, Effy, Bakey, and more. 

Bringing some of the best names in house and breaks, we’re certain every attendee will transcend.
