The Warehouse Project to stage shows in Melbourne and Sydney

Following huge international success in Europe at venues in Rotterdam, Netherlands and Antwerp, Belgium last year, The Warehouse Project is to make its Australian debut in Melbourne and Sydney.

The Manchester, England institution, renowned for its cultural impact in the rave scenes, will stage events on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th May 2024, in partnership with Live Nation Australia.

The special weekender will showcase an impressive array of international artists as well as home-grown talents from Australia.

Since its inception in 2006, The Warehouse Project has pushed boundaries in unique disused spaces around its home city, from the early days at Boddingtons Brewery to today's industrial rave powerhouse, Depot Mayfield.

Bringing the concept to Australia this May, The Warehouse Project will take over dynamic PICA in Melbourne and Munro Warehouse at Sydney Olympic Park.

The weekender in Melbourne and Sydney will take place simultaneously on Saturday and Sunday. Featuring globally acclaimed artists alongside some of Australia’s freshest talent, Day One in Melbourne (25th May) and Day Two in Sydney (26th May) will see Bonobo bring his international Outlier series to the Australian-cities.

Outlier has seen Bonobo harness his talents as a curator and arbiter of club culture, as well as demonstrating his instinctive relationship with music. Bonobo will be joined on the day by Kelly Lee Owens, Australia’s own HAAi, Paula Tape and DJ PGZ, and The Warehouse Project resident, Krysko.

Day Two in Melbourne (26th May) and Day One in Sydney (25th May) will welcome one of the most in-demand artists on the scene and another Australian favourite, Mall Grab, who will present his Looking For Trouble party for the first time in his native Australia. Mall Grab will be joined by Effy, Jennifer Loveless, and Australian DJ Dameeeela.

Announcing the Australian events, The Warehouse Project co-founder, Sam Kandel stated “following the success of our first international editions in Rotterdam and Antwerp last year, we’ve been having great fun putting more international plans together.

“Australia has always been somewhere we’ve dreamed of hosting The Warehouse Project. We are also so grateful to Bonobo and Mall Grab, and all the artists both international and domestic who will each play a special part of this WHP Australia debut.”
