Out of the frying pan and into the fire methinks!
For the 8th wonder of the world, Firefly presents to you an 8th birthday party with 8 hours of the delicious and nutricious, the good and the great, and maybe some cake (not you Chris Morris). It's been a long and definately winding road, but the past 8 years have brought us to here...we don't think a party couldn't really get much bigger than this in the confines of our spiritual home.
The party's here, the time will soon be now - gather your cohorts. Ravers! Party people! Firefly's back in town for a big, beautiful blow-out!

Sounds Like: Approaching our 8th Birthday, Firefly has long been a much talked about event. From the great vibes buzzing through the air, the acres of drapes and decor that totally change the venue to the forward thinking lineups that push DJs and crowds in new directions, never resting on one groove for too long. There's even the monster sound system that spanks out the kicks and flexes the revellers with every bassline. Jon Carter recently described Firefly as "the last proper rave in England". Probably a fact to be lamented, but we're proud!

About that music policy; well, Firefly has long believed that sticking to one set of guns on the night might get you shot down, so we come armed to the teeth, always looking to book an eclectic lineup. With only one vast room to play to, the proof of this policy lies in the huge crowd still begging for more at 6am every time! With the likes of British Murder Boys or Technasia appearing alongside Hot Chip, Audio Bullys or Justice, we've played host to an incredible array of artists - Dave Clarke, Ben Sims, Plump DJs, Derrick May, Ivan Smagghe, Booka Shade, Speedy J, Josh Wink, Vitalic, Freeform Five, Jeff Mills, Justice, Slam and oh so many more...

We've thrown huge parties in every major underground club in the city, but we always come back to The Marcus Garvey Ballroom. It's our spiritual home, from whence we came and where we shall always return!!! If you wanna come party, and party properly, come party with us!
