Today marks two years of my role as Head of Events for IDWC! ✔️

It's been an incredible journey so far, including:

Many, many shows at @grandcentralmcr, plus the creation of ALT:MCR.
The relaunch of @thebreadshedmcr and the stunning events and festivals we've hosted and continue to book.
Working alongside the @sankeysofficial team, for the takeover of that brand earlier this year.
Putting together the student-focussed events at @flourandflagonmcr.
Bookings across the Northwest for the ever-changing venue portfolio.

And now two new venues on the way 😳

To all the promoters, bands, artists, DJs and hosts I've worked with, thank you 🙏

To my amazing colleagues and team, looking forward to seeing what the future holds!

And to everyone who's come down to any event, we literally couldn't do this without you.

Here's to the next two 🍾 🎉

** BOOKING INFO UPDATE **

Just wanted to explain how the bookings for our music venues works, to clear up any confusion!

The way we book our live nights at @thebreadshedmcr and @grandcentralmcr, Manchester, has slightly changed this year.

For The Bread Shed, I am the main booker, which includes reviewing offers from external promoters and agents, as well as curating our in-house Bread Shed Presents shows.

You can send all enquiries to john@idwc.co.uk, but please bear in mind that this is a 450-cap venue for live events, so we will prioritise shows that are likely to sell around that level.
All genres considered.

For Grand Central, I book all official aftershows, plus selected covers/tributes.
We have very limited dates left this year.

ALT:MCR (now on Tuesdays) is booked by both myself and Harley at @undonepromotions (harley@idwc.co.uk).
ALT:MCR features all alternative genres of original music, excluding the heavier genres, such as metal.

Cryptic Sundays, as always, are exclusively booked by Undone Promotions.
Cryptic features exclusively the heavier genres of original music, including all genres of metal.

Please try and contact the most suitable person for your event, based on genre and expected crowd size.

Thanks!

ALT:MCR IS BACK TOMORROW!!

They've just announced the day splits and this lineup is looking unreal once again! 😳

@whitebottomfarm has got to be up there with one of the very best festival sites in the UK, too ❤️
