Enter Shikari are playing a special, tiny Manchester gig next month

Enter Shikari have just announced a tiiiiiiny headline gig.

Before their giant UK arena tour later this year, the band will head to the 400-capacity Satan’s Hollow in Manchester on April 9 – just one day shy of the 20th anniversary of their first gig in the city.

“Manchester’s a city that means a lot to us,” Shikari say. “The Satan’s Hollow show back in April ’06 was the first sense we got that ‘something’ was ‘happening’. A queue around the block and total chaos inside.

“We’ve had a lot of memorable shows in Manchester since then – and in November we’ll play our biggest ever UK headline show there! – but for some reason that night at Satan’s Hollow kept coming up in conversation, so the anniversary show was just too tempting.”

Tickets go on sale tomorrow (March 25) from 10am. Register here for access.

Then, in much bigger venues, see them at the following:
