THIS Friday, it’s Asylum’s biggest night of the year, and they’re getting spooky for Halloween with a £100 prize up for grabs.
‘A Nightmare on Barbauld Street’ is the return of the Halloween special for the alternative club night, Asylum. They have seen some of the alternative music scene’s biggest names over the years come through the doors with You Me At Six and Funeral For A Friend performing DJ sets, as well as hosting the biggest My Chemical Romance after party in the town last May.
“Halloween, aka ‘Goth Christmas’ is always a delight for our patrons and the number of people who dressed up last year blew me away. I’ve never been anywhere where so many people made so much effort.” says the Founder and co-DJ, Lee Harman.”
Those who do dress up will have a chance to win a £100 bar tab they’ll be able to start using on the night and through to the end of 2023 when Asylum based in the Eden nightclub will be closing the year once again on New Years Eve.
Asylum is also once again collaborating with Cafe At The End Of The Universe with all ticket holders able to get 10% off their food on Friday 27th October before doors open at Asylum at 10pm.
Lee, who has also DJ’d across the North West, and at Porters rock bar on Buttermarket Street, is keen to stress the importance of having a safe alternative venue in the town. “There may be a number of people who feel they can’t be themselves in other bars and clubs in Warrington, but I am proud of the community we have established at Asylum.”
“We also have some new merch that will be launching this month and they’re already being snapped up by those keen to show their support.”
With some of the biggest albums and tours over recent years coming from the likes of Blink 182, Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, Rock, Emo and alternative music has never been stronger, and it’s never been a better time to realise it’s not just a phase!”
Asylum run’s monthly on the last Friday of every month and in 2022, launched a sister club in Leigh.
