First, they brought us Hacienda gin, and now, Three Little Words is serving us a boozy Hacienda brunch – bringing together some of the iconic club’s original DJs and founders for a one-off knees-up.

Hacienda stalwarts Graeme Park, Peter Hook, Tom Wainwright and Herbie Saccani are teaming up with the owners of Manchester Gin to throw a boozy brunch in their bar under the archways ahead of a spectacular live orchestral show at Castlefield Bowl.

Soundtracked by a four-to-the-floor bassline and some of the era’s most celebrated hits, Hacienda superfans can get stuck into an electric day of music, food and drink – with a warm-up brunch taking place ahead of the show, followed by a raucous afterparty as the club celebrates its 40th anniversary.
