2007 was the year Trof NQ was born, it’s now been ten years since it opened its doors, so a huge all-out FREE celebration is in order! Plus coincidentally it’s the long Bank Holiday weekend, which will now be packed with top-notch, all day naughtiness from 25th May 2017 through ‘till Wednesday 31st, meaning there’s no excuse not to join in with the Birthday antics.
Manchester’s ‘Best Club Night 2017’ as voted by Manchester Evening News, La Discotheque, are strutting down the road from their usual residency at The Albert Hall for a mini-takeover of giant proportions on Saturday 27th May as La Petite Discotheque.
Doves frontman, Jimi Goodwin, will perform a one-off acoustic set at the top of the bill on what is usually Trof NQ’s ‘Open Mic’ night. Also on the ironic Open Mic roster, are favourites of the city, The Travelling Band, with a few other tasty names to be announced too.
The Bank Holiday Monday sees The Deaf Institute’s flagship, new music festival Stay Fresh Fest bring some of the hottest acts in the North onto one bill. It’s going to be like a raucous DIY house party show in a super tiny room. We can’t announce the line-up yet but there’s some VERY special guests about to be unveiled.
With lots more on offer, and as if all that wasn’t enough, Trof have also got a 10th Birthday themed quiz on the Tuesday with prizes champing Family Fortunes. With a big fat cash prize, a week’s VIP pass at The Albert Hall, and your a drinks tab on Trof NQ; bring your brains!
