Fridays at the Rose & Monkey are all about rhythm, energy, and deep cuts. From Northern Soul to Hip-Hop, Electronica, Jazz, Garage, and global sounds, our local DJs bring the city alive—mostly spinning wax to keep it raw and authentic. With selectors who’ve been setting Manchester’s underground alight, Friday nights breathe new life into the city’s musical history while keeping things firmly rooted in the now.
