Carrying on the tradition of our epic Pride weekend takeover parties, the good ship Paradise will be dropping anchor on its final voyage at Manchester’s Albert Hall on Saturday 23 August. This is an incredible space which has to be seen to be believed, and, in true Paradise style, we have got one hell of a night lined up for you already.

Top of the bill goes to M People’s Heather Small who will be live on stage performing M People’s biggest hits in a 30 minute show.

DJs confirmed so far are Tim Lennox, Dave Kendrick, Dave Booth, Huey Garry, Alan Stevens, David Dunne, Dylan Jeffers and Mike Allan.

The night will be hosted by The Divine David and Sister Marta, and will be an official Manchester Pride fundraising event.

PF20 was all about the reunion – being back in the Paradise Factory and meeting up with old friends.

PF21 will be a celebration, a birthday party, a time to say goodbye to the old girl once and for all and go out with a bang in a truly spectacular setting.

And, just to make it clear from the outset, there will be no PF22. That would be silly.

Tickets for PF21 are priced at £20 + booking fee, and are limited to 4 per person.
