Manchester Forever

On the Bank Holiday, May 3, 2025, we recreate the biggest and most authentic 10-hour Manchester rave reunion in history!

Spanning four arenas and a full 90s fairground experience, it will feature 60+ artists that shaped the 90's rave scene, across the genres of Hardcore, Old Skool, Jungle, Classic DnB, House, Acid, Gabber, and Techno

In the 1990s, Manchester’s Bowlers Exhibition Centre was a cornerstone of the UK’s rave culture, hosting events that drew thousands of dance music enthusiasts. The venue’s expansive 84,000-square-foot space provided an unparalleled atmosphere, and has been home to iconic events such as Helter Skelter, Life, Asylum, Fantasia and more, making it a central hub for the era’s vibrant rave scene

MCR Forever, at Bowlers Exhibition Centre, promises to transport us back to the golden age of rave—a movement that defined a generation!
