The 2024 Warehouse Project calendar was already shaping up to be top-tier but with the latest additions to this year’s lineup now out in the ether, we can now confirm this could very well be one of the best editions of the club series to date.
News of Jungle and Bonobo headlining Repercussion for the opening party of the season was enough to get us beyond excited and now we’re staring down the face of even more eye-catching events and big-name performers.
Revealing the return of Welcome To The Warehouse, the calendar has also seen two more huge dates tacked onto it, a night of music from Disclosure with Family and Friends, as well as the Worried About Henry 10th birthday set.
Whether you want modern electronic dance and disco music or some of the best contemporary drum and bass the genre has to offer right now, Warehouse Project has you covered.

The fun kicks off this autumn first with an unreal Repercussion lineup in its own right and will be followed by WHP’s flagship show, Welcome To The Warehouse (WTTW), which lands at Depot Mayfield on Saturday, 28 September.

This year’s Repercussion not only features the two aforementioned headliners but the likes of Honey Dijon, salute, DJ Seinfeld, DESIREE and many more.
As for WTTW 2024, there’ll be performances from Joseph Capriati, Boiler Room legend Chris Stussy; TSHA and Saoirse, as well as a Max and Luke Dean b2b, just to name a few.

This event will also be hosted across a total of five stages including the Depot, Concourse and Archive inside the venue, not to mention an additional street party on Temperance Street hosted by Animal Crossin, along with a takeover of the iconic Star and Garter pub just across the road.
And then there’s Disclosure presents Friends and Family; it would be more than enough to just see these guys on their own but Warehouse punters will also be treated to seeing the likes of Folamour, Jyoty, a Floating Points DJ set and more on Friday, 25 October. It’s going to be an unreal night.
Last but not least, Worried About Henry‘s reputation speaks for itself and with a decade of top-notch electronic nights here in the UK, the 10th anniversary on 23 November is already sure to be a belter.

Co-founder Sacha Lord might have announced he was stepping away from the music series last week but what a legacy he’s left and the future is looking as bright as ever for WHP.

New data estimates that 7.3m Oasis fans are set to miss out on 2027 tour tickets
Emily Sergeant
New data has revealed that as many as 7.3 million Oasis fans could be set to miss out on tickets to the band’s 2027 tour.
In case you need bringing up to speed a little, it was announced earlier this week that, following the unprecedented success of the reunion tour, Oasis Live ’25, last year, including five nostalgia-drenched gigs at Manchester’s Heaton Park, Oasis would be hitting the road once again in 2027, and this time around, they’re going BIG.
We’re talking 11 nights at the Etihad Stadium and a return to the iconic grounds of Knebworth for four special shows there too, kind of ‘big’.
The iconic Manchester band will also be taking to a range of other world-famous stages across the globe, including five nights at Glasgow’s Celtic Park, and major cities like Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, and Las Vegas.
But despite the elevated number of dates the Gallaghers and co will be performing, some new data has unfortunately revealed that millions of fans may still not be lucky enough to snag a ticket.
The ticketing system for Oasis Live ’27 is not what it was for the last tour, nor will it be similar to many other tours of a similar scale in the past either, as this time, the band and their promotors are taking necessary measures to ensure ‘genuine fans’ get their hands on the tickets and that dynamic pricing doesn’t creep in.
Instead of going into detail on that now though, you can read our full guide on how to get tickets for the Manchester and Knebworth shows here.
Experts at online ticketing platform TicketSource have analysed the scale of demand for Oasis tickets by comparing the 10 million fans worldwide who queued for the initial release of 1.4 million tickets for their 2025 tour, with the newly announced 2027 tour dates and stadium capacities.
With an estimated 2.67 million tickets available across 38 dates and 11 locations between 21 May and 19 September 2027, Oasis could still face huge demand from fans hoping to see them live.
But research reveals the band would need to play 112 Wembley-sized shows to accommodate everyone who tried to get a ticket in 2025.
The 2027 tour would accommodate just 26.7% of those who tried to get tickets last time, meaning almost three-quarters (73%) of them could miss out, leaving a shortfall of more than 7.3 million fans.
Fingers crossed you’re among the lucky lot that secure tickets, though.

Iconic Manc movie 24 Hour Party People is set to return to cinemas for its anniversary
Emily Sergeant
One of Manchester’s most iconic movies is set to return to the big screen next month.
Remastered in 4K and returning to UK cinemas to mark 24 years since its original release, Michael Winterbottom’s 2002 biographical comedy drama film, 24 Hour Party People, tells the story of Manchester‘s popular music community from 1976 to 1992 – specifically about Factory Records‘ founder Tony Wilson.
The film begins with the punk rock era of the late 1970s, before moving through the 1980s into the rave and DJ culture, and of course, the ‘Madchester‘ scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The narrative largely follows the career of Tony Wilson, played by Middleton-born actor Steve Coogan, while also covering the careers of the major Factory Records artists – especially Joy Division and New Order, as well as A Certain Ratio, The Durutti Column, and Happy Mondays.
If you haven’t seen 24 Hour Party People before, it’s a dramatisation based on a combination of real events, rumours, and urban legends, as the film is sure to make clear.
Coogan is joined by a cast by a mixture of big names and, at the time, rising stars like Paddy Considine, Shirley Henderson, Lennie James, John Simm, Ralf Little, Andy Serkis, Sean Harris, John Thomson, and even Peter Kay, alongside cameos from other figures connected to the Manchester music scene.
Before it returns to cinemas, the film will first open music and media festival/conference, Beyond The Music, at MediaCity in Salford on 6 October.
The screening at the festival will also be followed by a Q&A with Coogan, Winterbottom, and producer Andrew Eaton.
24 Hour Party People will then be re-released in UK cinemas from 9 October, and you can check your local cinema for screening times and book tickets online now.
