First nightclub event to take place in the UK - The First Dance heads to Liverpool

This May, Liverpool is set to host the first nightclub event to take place in the UK in more than a year.

On Friday 30th April and Saturday 1st May, legendary club night Circus will be hosting The First Dance as part of the national Events Research programme (ERP) which will see 6,000 clubbers across two nights take over Bramley-Moore Dock warehouse in an event which requires no social distancing or face coverings.

It will pave the way for clubs across the country to reopen their doors in the near future. 

On the line-ups are:

Friday 30 April

Sven Väth

The Blessed Madonna

Jayda G

Yousef

Lauren Lo Sung

Lewis Boardman

Saturday 1 May

Fatboy Slim

Yousef + special guest

Hot Since 82

Enzo Siragusa

Heidi 

Jaguar

James Organ

Doors will open from 2pm and as this event is part of a scientific experiment, tickets can only be purchased by Liverpool City Region residents.  

Today (Wednesday 21 April), tickets will be on sale exclusively to those who have pre-registered. Any remaining tickets will go on general sale from TicketQuarter on Thursday 22 April from 9am. Tickets are from £32.50. Only one ticket can be purchased per person.

Drink and food concessions will be available onsite. 

In order to be eligible for a ticket for this event you must be:

  • Over 18
  • Living in the Liverpool City Region and registered to a local GP 
  • Healthy and showing no sign of Covid-19 symptoms

You are strongly advised not to attend this event if you:

  • Have been advised that you are clinically vulnerable 
  • Are shielding, or someone you live with is shielding
  • Are pregnant 

Other Liverpool events which form part of the ERP are:

The Good Business Festival – Wednesday 28 April

Sefton Park Pilot music festival – Sunday 2 May

Luna Cinema on the Waterfront – Friday 14 to Sunday 16 May

Other national ERP events are:

World Snooker Championship, Sheffield Crucible Theatre

League Cup Final

FA Cup Final, Wembley Stadium

Circus Founder and DJ Yousef said:

“The First Dance is going to be a historic moment for electronic music and all events across in the UK.

“As the date nears and the weekend of events becomes closer to a reality, me and the team at Circus all share an almost overwhelming feeling of pride, emotion, excitement and of course responsibility for what lies ahead.


“Together with the team at Liverpool City Council, we have safely crafted these events together, with a singular focus to help the UK get closer to life beyond Covid, which for myself and Circus has been a great honour. 

“We can’t wait to see the dance floor erupt time and time again as it has over the last 18 years! ”
