Metalheadz: Goldie b2b Doc Scott at Joshua Brooks
Metalheadz brings one of drum and bass's most legendary nights to Manchester on Friday 21 August 2026, with the iconic back-to-back pairing of Goldie and Doc Scott headlining at Joshua Brooks. This is a genuine moment for serious liquid funk and breakbeat heads – two absolute pioneers of the genre joining forces for what promises to be an unforgettable session of classic dnb, rare cuts, and pure technical mastery. At just £8 to £15, it's proper value for a night this special.
Joshua Brooks sits right in Manchester city-centre and has earned its stripes as one of the North's best underground venues for electronic music. The intimate space and quality sound system create the perfect setting for the kind of focused, detailed drum and bass you'll get from Goldie and Doc Scott – every break and roll lands properly here.
The venue's easy to reach from Piccadilly or Deansgate if you're getting the tram, and there's decent parking nearby too. Doors open at 10pm, so arrive early if you want to catch the support DJs warming things up. Dress code's smart-casual and remember it's 18+ only, so bring valid ID.
