BYOB nightclub is opening in major UK city

A new Manchester venue will use the system.

XLR Manchester will be one of the first ever venues to use the system, which can be a huge money saver for young people.

The 200-capacity club will open its doors on Wilmslow Road in Withington on September 24.

Run by promoter Chris Hindle, a fee of £10 to £20, depending on what’s on, will be charged at the door in place of a more standard ‘corkage’ fee.

The venue will be licensed to sell drinks over the bar; however, customers will also be able to choose to bring their own drink.

Furthermore, lockers are provided so you can store your drinks over the evening.

For safety, there is a no backpack or glass policy.⁠

Some events already confirmed at the club include sets from British Punjabi and South Asian music scene icon Yung Singh and Bushbaby, of Brighton bass collective Southpoint.
