Primus brings their legendary alternative rock sound to Manchester on Monday 17 August 2026, delivering a night of bass-heavy grooves and experimental prog-rock that's made them cult heroes since the '90s. If you've ever wanted to experience Les Claypool's mind-bending bass work and the band's quirky, genre-defying energy live, this O2 Victoria Warehouse show is your chance to see one of rock's most innovative acts in an intimate Manchester setting.
The O2 Victoria Warehouse sits right in Castlefield, Manchester's historic district where Victorian industrial architecture meets modern entertainment venues. The converted warehouse space creates an atmospheric setting for live music, with excellent acoustics and sightlines that make it perfect for catching every technical detail of Primus's intricate arrangements.
Getting there is straightforward from Manchester city centre—Castlefield is just a short tram or bus ride away, with decent parking nearby if you're driving. The gig kicks off at 7pm, so arrive early to grab a drink and soak in the pre-show buzz. Fair warning: Primus crowds are passionate and the mosh pits get lively, so wear comfortable shoes and come ready to lose yourself in some seriously unconventional rock music.
