Our House Festival review: Halifax festival showcases northern talent

We sent Isabel Armitage to Halifax's Our House Festival.

Date published: 9th Jul 2024

Our House Fest visited Halifax at one of the city's most iconic settings, Dean Clough. 

Dean Clough is a thriving and vibrant venue reminiscent of Halifax’s legendary Piece Hall as a 22-acre mixed-use mill complex. From its temporary courtyard dance floors to its artisan flat whites, this hidden gem of the north transforms a humble textile factory building into a versatile creative space, representing one of Halifax’s well-loved renovation projects.  

As a magnificent Grade II listed Victorian Mill, Dean Clough was constructed back in 1840, giving license for the structure to be known as one of Britain’s oldest dance music venues. From the get-go, Our House Fest was destined to be a day to remember.
