Easter weekend is nearly upon us and for those of you lucky enough to have the weekend off work, 02.31 are offering a lovely little Easter Thursday treat. The line-up includes legendary garage duo Artful Dodger and the famous bringers of devilish bass; Cause and Affect. Both DJ duos promise to push the speakers to the limit with their boisterous sets. Whilst they dominate inside the venue Cheese n Pickle host the Rainbow terrace, the perfect spot to dance with summer just around the corner. They’ll be churning out some old-school flavoured tunes with good old fashioned Garage at the top of the menu.

This is England Official Club Night | Sun 16 Apr | The Hare and Hounds | £12.50
Shane Meadow’s British drama focused on a rather motley crew of youngers, as they passed some eventful years together, the latest instalment landing them in the 90s-rave era. It seems only logical then that they’d invite us in on the rave? Shaun and Gadget will be taking to the decks and transporting party goers to Madchester; the pumping heart of the original rave scene. So, if you fancy getting tangled up in the hectic lives of the This is England crew, and getting down to some nostalgic tunes then don your best 90s clobber and head to the Hare and Hounds this Sunday.
