Looking to get your rave on this New Year's? Join us as we take a whistle stop tour of UK events taking place this December 31st and January 1st.
West and Wales
We start out in Bristol with the city's foremost "big room" experience, In:Motion. Sub Focus have been drafted in to helm the main room, while the second warehouse will be the preserve of Swamp 81 and Subloaded, with Loefah , Pinch , Boddika , Peverelist and Kowton getting rowdy. More traditional house and disco will soundtrack the next afternoon/evening at the club: Tale Of Us , Eats Everything , Subb-an , Heidi and Todd Terje will be entertaining until 02:00 AM on January 2nd. Elsewhere in Bristol there's a Butterz takeover of Basement 45 on New Year's Eve, while over in Cardiff on New Year's Day, Darius Syrossian steps up for Aura.
North
Manchester has a fair few options for you to consider. Content's party at Joshua Brooks on NYE should feel nice and house-y with Delano Smith and Cottam both appearing, while Sankeys has The Martinez Brothers, Phil Weeks and Richy Ahmed all billed. James Zabiela , Benoit & Sergio and Simian Mobile Disco represent a few of Warehouse Project's highlights for the 31st; their enormous 2012 closing party the following evening rolls with Jamie Jones , Seth Troxler , Maceo Plex , Four Tet , Joy Orbison , Julio Bashmore and plenty of others besides.
Moving on to Sheffield, Faction head to Dirty Little Secret for a bash involving techno (James Ruskin , Regis ) and house (Gerd , agnes , Jay Shepheard ). Your best bet for Leeds, meanwhile, is Mono_cult's NYD bash at The Faversham. Henrik Schwarz , Jackmaster , Bicep and Mano Le Tough should provide a well-scope of sounds.
Scotland
Edinburgh's Liquid Rooms is the city's tastiest looking option on NYE. Musika have lined up a triple threat with Joris Voorn , Derrick Carter and Darius Syrossian . (Carter will also be spinning for Headway & Autodisco at The Reading Rooms in Dundee that same evening.) And Glasgow has a few picks to keep you moving this Hogmanay. Glasgow City Social Club host Gavin Herlihy at Saint Judes; Subculture at the Sub Club sees Harri & Domenic and "special friends" bringing in the New Year; and Optimo set-up at The Glue Factory with current RA podcaster Auntie Flo as their guest.
