Are you only a fan of tunes from a couple of decades back? Does current chart music just not cut it for you compared to the nostalgic tracks from the past?

Well, 90s kids, 00s lovers, dance floor heroes, and underground clubbers, it’s time to go back to that time you love so much as there’s a brand-new music festival that’s bringing “timeless tunes and fresh vibes” to the masses at a yet-to-be-announced location in Manchester to kick-start the summer season.

Flashback Festival is Manchester’s only outdoor festival celebrating the best dance music from the 90s and 00s.

Although we can’t tell you too much about the lineup and location of the unmissable event just yet, what we can tell you is that some of the biggest names from dance music across the globe, some chart-topping local throwbacks, and some of the elite North West residents from over the years will be gathering in the city for one-day-only this May.
