Weir Mill reveals local line-up for party under the viaduct arches

Developer, Capital&Centric, is throwing open the doors of its newly opened Weir Mill neighbourhood in Stockport this autumn for a free, full-day party.

Taking place on Saturday 3rd October from 11.30am, WEIR:LIVE promises a full day of live music and a family-friendly rave beneath the arches of Stockport’s iconic viaduct.

The event has been deliberately built around the people already making things happen in the borough, with every DJ, musician, artist, record label and creative on the bill from the town.

Ant Powell, Head of Work & Social at Capital&Centric, said:

“Weir Mill has been years in the making and we think it deserves a proper send-off into the world. WEIR:LIVE isn’t a launch event – it’s a party for Stockport. We wanted every act, every artist and every creative involved to be from this town. The talent is here, it’s brilliant, and it deserves a stage. We want people who’ve watched this place come back to life to come down, have a drink, hear some great music and feel like this neighbourhood is already theirs. Because it is.”

Across two stages and an outdoor party space, the line-up at Weir Mill will include:

• A Certain Ratio (DJ Set)
• The Playhouse Project Family Rave
• Muddy Feet (Sticky Heat)
• NAM
• Bobby Thorpe
• Pangolin
• Ste Macca
• Annie Fay
• Pop Vox Choir
• Before I Die presents: BiD Sound ft. Arrival, Jason Boardman J-Walk, Yasmin Lever

Plus great food, cocktails from local vendors and the Beartown Brewery Bus.

WEIR:LIVE is free to attend and open to everyone. There will also be a suggested donation on the day with proceeds going to the Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity.
