The Psychedellyfish swarm is migrating north on the spring currents this March, and yes, it's time to get your tentacles waving.
For those of you who don't know us, we are a collective that comes together once a year to run a music camp at Burning Nest, the UK affiliate of Burning Man. We also host events throughout the year to raise funds to run the camp, and this is the first time we have brought one of these parties to the north.
The burner scene is built around a set of core principles, including consent, radial inclusion and self-expression; for full details, please see them here:

This time, we’re landing in Manchester for a day party packed with psychedelic decor, a carefully curated line-up of DJs, and a healthy dose of jelly-swarm shenanigans. Expect colour, great tunes, silliness, and that slightly surreal dancefloor magic our crew does best.
