Established way back in 1991, Fantazia has become one of the most recognised and legendary rave brands in the UK. For sheer scale and audacity Fantazia remains unparalleled, and 22 years from its inception, has not let up in throwing the biggest rave ups the country has ever seen. It seems perfectly natural then for Fantazia to once again arrive at Manchester’s Bowlers venue for five arenas of first class old skool, hardcore and house classics, recreating the rave spirit of the early nineties.

Fantazia team up with Scotland’s premier party starters Rezerection for the first time ever in arena one. The Time Frequency are lined up to perform live on stage, as are Shades of Rhythm, Q-Tex and The SL2 Experience. Other highlights include Ratpack and Bass Generator for a set of Rezerection Classics.

N-Trance - Set You Free (Live)

Arena two sees N-Trance get back behind the decks for an uplifting house set full of piano led goodness. Brandon Block too will be making an appearance, as will Vertigo, Rick Jones and local Manchester based house music hero Stu Allan. Arena three will boast a first rate line up of UK hardcore classics, featuring Dougal, Scott Brown, Gammer and Ramos.

And finally arena four will experience more harcdcore techno hosted by DJ Clarkee & MC Sharkey, Scorpio & MC Ribbz, and Dolphin & MC Ezy to name just a few. Head here to check out the rest of the line up.

With so many major players involved, Fantazia’s newest party has everything in place to go down an absolute storm. Nobody takes you back to the oldskool better than this lot.
