UDGK is bringing James Holroyd to Manchester for a free night of proper dance music on Saturday 13 June 2026. Holroyd's credentials are solid – he's known for his work with legendary spots like Bugged Out and Back to Basics, so expect a stripped-back, underground vibe that prioritises quality beats over chart nonsense. This is a chance to catch someone who genuinely knows how to read a room and build a set, and the fact it's completely free makes it even better value.
Off The Square sits right in the heart of Manchester's city centre and has built a solid reputation for hosting credible clubbing events without the pretension of bigger venues. It's the kind of place where the focus stays on the music and the crowd rather than bottle service and posturing – exactly the setting where a selector like Holroyd thrives.
The venue is easily accessible by tram or bus, and with an 11pm start time you've got the whole night ahead. Get there early enough to catch the whole set and soak in the atmosphere properly. Remember it's 18+ only, so bring ID, and wear whatever makes you comfortable – it's all about the music here, not fashion flexing.
