This year’s Warehouse Project programme finally kicks off this weekend with the UK’s contemporary disco icons Jungle headlining the Repercussion opening party.
You could hardly pick a better act to get the 2024 season underway than that, could you?
Only a few months after their incredible outdoor gig at Castlefield Bowl at this summer’s Sounds of the City festival, the conquering music collective is getting the WHP festivities underway as they top the billing of a frankly ridiculous Repercussion lineup.
From tickets and full event lineup to stage times and more, here’s all the important info ahead of what is going to be an absolutely massive night.
Are their tickets left for Jungle at Repercussion, Warehouse Project?
Yes, we can confirm there are still tickets left for Jungle and Repercussion at WHP 2024, with prices starting from £45 (not including booking costs).

Full-price tickets are now valued at £54.45 before handling fees or you can even spring for a VIP ticket from £82.50 each.
If you were hoping to book a hotel and ticket package to sleep off the raving in the morning, however, those passes have unfortunately sold out for this gig but can still be secured for future events.

This is strictly an 18+ event but if you’re still looking to hop on a ticket, you can grab yours HERE.
Support acts and full Repercussion 2024 lineup
But it isn’t just the brilliant Jungle that will be blowing people away on the opening weekend of Warehouse Project 2024 as it was pretty easy for a group this big to attract some of the most exciting names in the dance and electronic genre.
Other heavyweights playing on the night include the incredible Bonobo, the sensational Honey Dijon, as well as two personal top-picks of ours, rising star salute and cult favourite DJ Seinfeld – and that really just the tip of the iceberg…
Here’s a rundown of everyone booked for the night – and we’ve even highlighted some names that we really think you should check out from the rest of the lineup if you can.

Repercussion stage times and stage splits
Now, it’s a long old night but we can confirm that doors for Jungle at Depot Mayfield are from 4pm and last entry will be at 7:30pm – they’re always strict when it comes to this as well, so don’t get caught out by being late.
As for when and where this huge slate of acts will be playing, you can find the full list of stage times and stage splits for Repercussion at WHP 2024 down below:
WHP moved its main hub from Victoria Warehouse to Depot Mayfield back in 2019 and it’s safe to say the world-renowned event is thriving in its new home.
Just an eight-minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly or a 20-minute walk from Manchester Victoria Station, it’s super easy to get to on foot or via public transport.

You can catch a train or multiple tram lines from Victoria and various other points around the city centre which will drop you off at Manchester Piccadilly; better still, a tram journey will only set you back £1.90 and not much more for the train.
Taxis are also widely available across Manchester city centre starting from £5 upwards from Manchester Victoria to Depot Mayfield or £4 and above for a ride to the venue from Piccadilly.
There are multiple free drinking points inside as well as free cups of water behind the bar. Stay properly hydrated and you’ll be able to party well into the early hours.
Amnesty bins can be found on your way into the building. We urge everyone to stay safe and look after one another. Lastly, anyone wearing a football shirt will not be accepted into the venue.
Other than that, we hope you have an absolutely incredible time watching Jungle and the rest of the Repercussion lineup or, indeed, whichever of this year’s WHP events you’ve grabbed tickets for.

Westlife announce extra Manchester arena show for huge 25th anniversary tour
Daisy Jackson
Legendary pop group Westlife have announced the European leg of their 25th anniversary tour, which includes not just one but a trio of Manchester Arena gigs.
The beloved boyband will be hitting the road from September next year to celebrate a quarter of a century of timeless ballads and chart-topping pop songs.
Westlife, which is made up of Nicky Byrne, Shane Filan, Kian Egan and Mark Feehily, are behind massive hits like ‘You Raise Me Up’, ‘Flying Without Wings’, ‘Swear It Again’, and ‘If I Let You Go’.
The upcoming ‘Westlife 25: The Anniversary World Tour’ will include shows right across the UK and Ireland, including Leeds, Sheffield and one extra show here in Manchester.
The initial news came ahead of the group performing two sold-out nights at the Royal Albert Hall, and a sell-out success in Dublin and Belfast already.
Following an overwhelming reaction and huge demand, Co-op Live have seen fit to add another Westlife show to their calendar and double up on their venue debut, with other multiple cities now looking at more shows, too.
Over the last 25 years, Westlife have become one of the most successful pop groups of all time, with three billion streams globally, 36 number one albums worldwide, and 14 UK number one singles (ranking only behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles).
In fact, Westlife still remain the UK and Ireland’s top-selling album group of the 21st century.
Westlife have also just released a new single, ‘Chariot’, written by Ed Sheeran, Johnny McDaid from Snow Patrol and Will Reynolds, as well as being co-written and produced by Steve Mac.
And in February next year (just in time for Valentine’s Day), they’ll release 25 – The Ultimate Collection, a greatest hits album of 21 fan favourites.

Westlife said: “This year marks 25 years since we started this incredible journey together, and it still feels like only the beginning.
“The support from our fans has been unbelievable, and to celebrate with this world tour, new music, and a brand-new album feels truly special.
“We can’t wait to see you all on the road and share this next chapter together.”
Westlife will perform their first night at the Co-op Live arena on Friday, 23 October 2026, before playing a second and third night in Manchester over the weekend.
General sale tickets are already on sale HERE, with affordable VIP packages also available through Seat Unique HERE.

Reggae legends UB40 announce massive Manchester arena gig
Danny Jones
UK reggae icons UB40 have just announced a massive run of domestic arena dates, including a huge show at an equally legendary venue here in Manchester.
The Brummy veterans of the British reggae and ska scene have been going for more than four decades now, blending both pop and rocksteady styles, as well as other Caribbean influences into their music.
A cult favourite group since their inception, whose lineup has always remained fluid – sometimes featuring more than nine different musicians on stage – they’re known for their brilliant live sets just as much as their studio material.
Started by the Campbell family, there might not be many founding members left now, but with American actor and singer Matt Doyle now serving as the modern lead singer since 2021, there’s still plenty of energy, youth and experience to their spirited gigs.
Revealing a return to Manchester and yet another trip to the AO Arena on Monday morning, 3 November, UB40 have also confirmed that former frontman Ali Campbell will be back on the road with them once again next summer.
While the 66-year-old hasn’t strictly ‘reunited’ with the group, he does star as the main featured artist on the upcoming 2026 tour.
He will also be joined by R’n’B/reggae-fusion artist Maxi Priest, as well as fellow contemporaries, Aswad – another seasoned act who have been making music in the genre and performing live since 1975.
Speaking on the comeback, co-founder Robin Campbell said: “For more than 40 years, we’ve been one of the hardest working touring bands in pop music.
“We aim to have a party every show. As much as we enjoyed our Zoom chats [about more shows] during lockdown, there’s no substitute for the relationship and synergy we have with our live audiences.”
Dropping a definitive UB45 compilation featuring their greatest hits back in April 2024 – and celebrating as many years in their recording career – UB40 are also set to release another new album next year, in line with the fresh UK tour dates.
We’re pleased to announce our June, 2026 UK Arena Tour with special guests @MaxiPriest & @aswadband! Sign up to our newsletter via the link below for more info on how to access the ticket pre-sale and to find out more about how to pre-order our new studio album coming in 2026.
