Over-18s daytime rave with high-energy trance anthems from Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond and Paul van Dyk at The Sugarmill.
The Sugarmill is hosting a Trance Day Party on Saturday 21 November, a daytime rave that runs from 15:00 to 20:00. It's a five-hour session of high-energy trance anthems, with the set built around the big names of the genre: Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond and Paul van Dyk. If you know those three, you know the sound they're going for — the melodic, driving trance that's defined the scene for decades.
It's a daytime one, so it's more of a late-afternoon session than a late-night clubber's thing. The music starts at 3pm and wraps up by 8pm, which means you're in and out while it's still light outside. It's strictly over-18s, so keep that in mind if you're bringing a group.
The Sugarmill is one of Stoke-on-Trent's most iconic live music venues, sitting in the heart of Hanley's Cultural Quarter. It opened in the mid-1990s and has spent the years since showcasing emerging talent alongside established acts, playing a part in the early careers of several internationally successful artists. It's known for its intimate atmosphere and energetic crowds, and the room regularly hosts live gigs, DJ club nights and special events across a wide range of genres, from indie and rock to electronic, alternative and hip hop.
