HOT TAKE YES is celebrating eight years of bringing quality electronic and alternative music to Manchester with a special birthday bash at YES Basement on Saturday 19 September 2026. This is the night to catch the collective in full swing, showcasing the kind of cutting-edge sounds and vibrant atmosphere that've made HOT TAKE YES a fixture on the city's underground music scene. At just £8.50, it's an absolute bargain for a proper night out with guaranteed good vibes and top-tier DJs and live acts.
YES Basement sits right in Manchester city centre and has earned its stripes as one of the go-to spots for credible electronic and alternative nights. The intimate underground setting creates that proper sweaty, packed dancefloor energy where you're genuinely close to the action, and the venue's reputation for hosting innovative promoters like HOT TAKE YES speaks volumes about its standing in the local music community.
This is an 18+ event, so bring ID. Get there early if you want breathing room on the dancefloor, though honestly the crowds are part of the charm. The basement can get busy, so wear something you don't mind getting a bit hot in, and expect to lose your voice celebrating eight years of solid music promotion in Manchester.
