Apollonia headlines SlapFunk & Animal Crossing at PROGRESS, while Barca hosts deep house and R&B vibes with DJ Cartier. Full lineup inside.

Apollonia headlining SlapFunk & Animal Crossing - An Inner City Festival that Slaps different at PROGRESS anchors a Sunday where house-heavy lineups dominate Manchester. The trio’s intricate yet floor-commanding sound complements a festival lineup featuring Dyed Soundorom, Shonky, and Fumiya Tanaka—names that ensure the venue will be locked into groove territory from start to finish.

Meanwhile, Barca welcomes another standout event: W&E & Lovebugs Manchester, Premium vibes. Iconic DJs. Deep house and R&B merge here with sets from Dj Cartier, Sy Sez, and Sean Mccabe, offering a soulful counterpoint to PROGRESS’s more minimal approach. If you’re looking for a smaller but equally curated vibe, this might be the room to land.

Over at The DBA, SHELLING.IT 005 adds disco flair to an already house-leaning night. Shelle Y and Kayja Vu lead the decks, promising a playful energy that contrasts some of the deeper sounds elsewhere. Expect a more intimate crowd, but definitely not a quiet one.

Jazz-infused house will be on display at Expansions x Bar Shrimp inside Bar Shrimp, with Contours, King Kit, and Yadava bringing sophisticated selections to one of Manchester's hidden gems. If you’re chasing lighter, melodic textures, this is the spot to close out your night.

Finally, Day Time Disco: Mousse T at Joshua Brooks delivers a dose of polished disco with a headline set from Mousse T. This daytime event shifts the weekend’s energy into sunlit grooves—perfect for easing into the Bank Holiday Monday.

The full lineup for Manchester tomorrow is at all Manchester events.
