Mix Up kicked off in October 2011 as a way to celebrate the diversity of Manchester and beyond's music scene without being tied to a style or genre. Originally running as a monthly event, the focus of the night is to provide an eclectic mix of quality music at an affordable entry price with a laid back vibe.

After five years of being a successful monthly night, Mix Up now runs as a pop up weekend event bringing some of the most respected and reputable acts to Manchester.

Past performers at Mix Up include: Paddy Steer, Honeyfeet, GoGo Penguin, Denis Jones, Henge, Matthew Halsall, Roller Trio, Shatner's Bassoon, Stuart McCallum, Blue Rose Code, Age of Glass, The Part Time Heliocentric Cosmo Drama After School Club, Mix Up Afrobeat Orchestra, Mammal Hands, Gypsies of Bohemia, Kirsty McGee, Liz Green, Jason Singh, John Kenzie, Alabaster de Plume, The Magic Hat Ensemble, Mr Wilson's Second Liners, Ríoghnach Connolly's Black Lung...and many more.
