Manchester’s favourite event Haçienda Classical, is set to celebrate 10 years of iconic performances at the historic Castlefield Bowl on Saturday, 4th July 2026.
A groundbreaking musical project, Haçienda Classical fuses the spirit of the legendary Haçienda with the timeless sounds of classic dance tracks. Resident DJ Graeme Park carefully curates a selection of iconic anthems from the late 1980s and early 1990s, which are then reimagined with orchestral arrangements by the Manchester Camerata Orchestra. The result is a not-to-be-missed experience featuring powerful vocals and special guests, still to be announced.
Haçienda’s resident DJ Graeme Park has said ‘2026 is the 10th anniversary of what was supposed to be a one-off show. Haçienda Classical returns next year with a new show that features some very special guests and I am beyond excited to continue to share the joy of what continues to be a thrilling journey guaranteed to make you smile.’
Fletch, Haçienda’s manager adds: ‘The Haçienda Classical shows at Castlefield Bowl are always special, and celebrating 10 years is a huge milestone for us. We’re pulling out all the stops to make this one extra special!’
Having sold out multiple shows at prestigious venues like the Royal Albert Hall and the Warehouse Project, as well as headlining major festivals including Isle of Wight, Kendal Calling, and even opening Glastonbury Festival’s Pyramid Stage in 2017, Hacienda Classical has captivated audiences worldwide.
The show's unique blend of classic dance tracks and orchestral arrangements has garnered rave reviews from critics and fans alike. NME hailed it as "Probably the best rave since 1997," while Mixmag described it as "A near two-hour blend of house music’s greatest players with an audience dancing and singing from the off."
Hacienda Classical continues to evolve, solidifying its place as a must-see event for music lovers everywhere. It brings together diverse audiences, creating an electric atmosphere that has made it a constant sell-out.
