No Art lands in the UK with ANOTR-curated Manchester Open Air this May

Amsterdam tastemakers ANOTR are bringing their globally respected No Art concept to the UK for the very first time with No Art Manchester Open Air, set to take over Greater Manchester on Saturday 30th May, 3PM–11PM, marking the brand’s biggest UK open-air show to date.

After years of building a reputation for carefully curated lineups and immersive art-led experiences across cities including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Miami, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo, No Art now makes its long-awaited British debut with a full-scale outdoor festival experience.

The full venue and lineup will be revealed in the coming weeks, but fans can expect the same forward-thinking house programming and high-production ethos that has made No Art events some of the most talked-about gatherings in the global underground.

Presale tickets go live Tuesday 3rd February at 6PM, followed by general sale Wednesday 4th February at 6PM. Sign up for early access via noartmcr.com.

ANOTR continue to sit at the forefront of modern house music, blending disco, soul, funk and jazz influences into a sound that has dominated dancefloors worldwide. With tracks such as Relax My Eyes surpassing 200 million streams alongside breakout hits like How You Feel, the Dutch duo have become one of the scene’s most influential forces.

Their No Art platform has become synonymous with discovery-driven lineups, unexpected locations and a refusal to follow conventional festival formulas, prioritising atmosphere, artistic expression and carefully selected performers over mainstream headliners.

Speaking on the announcement, No Art said:

“It’s been a while, Manchester. Good to be back. Built on sound, ideas, and attitude. No Art Festival feels right at home. Keep your eyes peeled for the venue announcement coming soon. It’s an open-air space in Greater Manchester.”

With anticipation already building, No Art Manchester Open Air is shaping up to be one of the standout UK electronic events of the summer.
