Deadbolt has been throwing parties all over the UK since 2011 and now they’re heading to Bangor for their Wales debut! Deadbolt is taking the party to Rascals Bar on Saturday 22 September.

Rascals is known in Bangor as THE place for alt students to party with fantastic drinks deals, friendly staff and a great atmosphere.

Deadbolt will be playing a mix of upcoming bands and classic hits in the genres of rock, metalcore, pop punk, metal, emo and dancefloor anthems.

Drinks deals on the night include:
Fireball shot £2
Coors Light bottle £1.80
House doubles + mixer £2.60
Purple Pussy + Fat Frog cocktail pitchers £6.50

There will be party games throughout the night such as limbo and beer pong and Fireball giveaways all night.

For a chance to win free goodies, and to put in any song requests for the night, join the facebook event.

Advance tickets are available for £2 via See Tickets, Skiddle and our website. Entry on the door will be £4  or £2 with a student ID.

Deadbolt is an 18+ event and ID will be required to enter.

Deadbolt will be involved with the first ever Start The Takeover event on Friday August 10th at Zombie Shack, which aims to be the Alternative scene’s biggest collaboration of clubnights past and present in the name of a good cause each time, with the first event’s proceeds going to Manchester Women’s Aid.

Deadbolt DJ Lee Earnshaw Jr. started this project after growing frustrated with the bad reputation in the Alternative / Rock / Pop Punk scenes when it comes to sexual and domestic abuse. After some brainstorming, he thought it would be a good idea to use the music and clubs to contribute something positive to the community. Future events will donate to other worthy causes, meaning customers will be helping people whilst partying with the very best the Manchester Alt Club scene has to offer at the same time.

Other DJs confirmed for this debut event include Emo Disco, Club Skeleton, Tom Hardwick and Antonia Ronayne (ex-Jillys and other legendary venues), with some more surprise DJs still to be announced.

Other brands working with the night are Fireball and Reap What You Sow.

This event has no advance tickets, but it will be £3 on the door, with all profits going to a great cause.

Further information can be found on the Facebook event.

Deadbolt is paying tribute to one of the biggest alternative bands of the millennium Fall Out Boy with Dance Dance. The Fall Out Boy Disco will take place at Zombie Shack on Friday 29th June.

Fall Out Boy have been a staple band of Deadbolt since its conception and never fails to get the crowd singing along with their biggest hits! From classics such as Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy and Sugar, We’re Going Down to recent singles such as Wilson (Expensive Mistakes) and The Last Of The Real Ones, the night will span the whole of their career.

In 2016 Deadbolt headed to Scotland to DJ at Edinburgh’s biggest alternative clubnight Decade and it turns out that they party hard! So for Dance Dance they will be coming down to make a guest appearance and show Manchester how they party.

Aside from Fall Out Boy, the Deadbolt and Decade DJs will be playing a mix of upcoming bands and classic hits in the genres of pop punk, metal, emo and dancefloor anthems.

Deadbolt and Decade are both sponsored by Fireball so there will be plenty of giveaways throughout the night.

As Deadbolt are also sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon there will be an exclusive giveaway of a free Boilermaker for the first 50 in! For those who are not familiar with the Boilermaker, this is a shot of whisky chased with beer. On entry party goers will receive a token to pick up their free Fireball and can of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

During the night there will be exclusive Fall Out Boy themed cocktails to grab at the bar.

Tickets for Dance Dance are available for £4 via Red Cardinal Music, Skiddle, See Tickets, Ticketline and Fatsoma, or for £5 on the door. Students can also show a valid ID to get £4 entry. For a chance to win freebies click “Going” on the Facebook event.

Seven years ago Deadbolt threw their first party at Zoo in Manchester before hosting clubnights and live gigs in many venues across the city, and specials across the UK. This year’s birthday will be celebrated with a Deadbolt favourite theme – the MySpace Party – at The Bread Shed on Friday 16th March.

The night will be a chance to take a stroll down memory lane and be taken back to the many nights sat in front of MSN, plotting your next hairstyle! The biggest scene kings and queens of the night can win prizes for the most scene outfits on the night. On entry everyone will receive a name tag to display their cringe Myspace names for all to see.

As well as the usual Deadbolt bangers, you can expect to hear the best bands from the Myspace era including From First To Last, Atreyu, Hadouken, The Medic Droid, My Chemical Romance and other guilty pleasures.

There will be exclusive Myspace Themed cocktails on the night named after the best songs of the golden era.

As it’s a birthday party, there will be birthday cake given out to party guests. Our friends from Reap What You Sow Clothing will also be hosting a party area all night hosting the chaotic party games Deadbolt has been known for these past 7 years!

On the night of the Myspace Party All Time Low will be playing at Manchester Arena and anyone who shows their ticket on the door will get £2 entry and a free shot of Fireball on entry.
