The Warehouse Project in Manchester is making a bold move for its upcoming 2025/26 season by introducing a "no phones" policy at all concourse shows, starting this September.

The policy, which bans filming and photography on the dancefloor, aims to bring clubbing back to its roots. "We want people to connect through music, without distractions", says WHP founder Sam Kandel. To ensure memories aren’t lost, official photos and videos will be shared with attendees after each event.

The season kicks off with Annie Mac’s "Before Midnight" party and continues with a strong lineup: FISHER (September 20), Dom Dolla (October 10), Overmono with a huge bill (October 18), Confidence Man (October 24), Sports Banger on Halloween (October 31), and Marlon Hoffstadt on November 1 for the "Party of the Year".

WHP has also announced venue upgrades at Depot Mayfield, including improved toilets and enhanced VIP viewing platforms.

With this new approach, The Warehouse Project invites ravers to live in the moment: less filming, more feeling.
