Bass Face // MCR // DNB . 360° SUMMER SPECIAL
Bass Face returns to Manchester for an unmissable drum and bass showcase this summer, bringing the heat with their 360° Summer Special at Gorilla on Saturday 25 July 2026. This is your chance to experience proper DNB in one of the city's most legendary venues, with free tickets still available for early birds—though at just £12 when they sell out, it's a bargain either way. If you're after genuine underground bass culture in MCR, this event is essential.
Gorilla sits right in the heart of Deansgate and has built its reputation as Manchester's go-to spot for cutting-edge electronic music and live acts. The intimate-yet-energetic vibe of the space makes it perfect for drum and bass nights, where the sound system hits hard and the crowd's energy is absolutely electric. You'll be surrounded by serious heads who know their breakbeats from their half-steps.
The night kicks off at 11pm, so arrive around midnight to catch the momentum building on the dancefloor. Wear comfortable shoes—you'll be moving—and expect the kind of sweat-soaked, euphoric atmosphere that defines Manchester's DNB community. Head down Deansgate from the city centre and you can't miss it; this is the kind of Saturday night that locals actually talk about come Monday morning.
