The first new party unveiled this morning, is a headline show curated by rapper Loyle Carner.

Following this, renowned DJ and producer Four Tet will be returning to the warehouse for an eight-hour set at the Depot stage. With tickets starting at £25, the day and night party on October 19, will see the legendary artist delve into his rousing electronic repertoire, spanning ambient bliss to rowdy club-wreckers.
November 15 will see Hot Creations label head Jamie Jones bring his global event series Paradise to the 10,000-capacity Northern venue. Jones has curated a line-up that reflects his brand’s signature house, techno and tech-house sensibility, with East End Dubs, Franky Rizardo, Loco Dice, Mason Collective and Murphy’s Law, among others on the line-up.
As the winter months near, Mancunians can expect to hear the sounds of Fatboy Slim coming out the warehouse on November 22.

Alongside the additional shows, the announcement also comes with the news of a new collaborative initiative with Apple Music. Becoming one of the first venues in the world to launch the concept, The Warehouse Project will be recording all its live sets using innovative spatial audio technology, giving fans, as well as those who could not attend, the opportunity to listen back to their favourite DJs via Apple Music.
