An exciting new club night is coming to our  neighbours the Mint Lounge, right next door to Hilton Chambers and just a stone throw away from the Hatters!

Launch party: Thursday, 28th May.

The night marks the 1st in a series of special events held in Manchester, with a line up that brings both Electronic and Indie music together to showcase  fresh and innovative artists and DJs from across all dance music genres.

Line-up:

The Sunshine Underground (D.J. set)
David E Sugar (D.J. set)
Crystal Fighters (live)
The RGB’s (live)
Mind On Fire D.J.’s

Rather than being just an ordinary club night with a few DJs or a night of live music only SYSTEM brings the two elements together, making the event a mix of both and presenting a fine selection of live bands and DJs.

Special discount for hostel guests!

It is £8 on the door to get in, but there’s good news for everyone staying at our Manchester hostels, Hatters or Hilton Chambers:  Show your security voucher (the little piece of paper you get on check-in) and you’ll get a 50% discount!

The bar has special student rates on drinks all night too, so it is perfect for an affordable night out very close to your bed!
