Electrik Warehouse

You'll hear Electrik before you see it – the bass from three floors of indie anthems and dance classics rattles through the Georgian streets around Wood Street. This is where Liverpool's students come to sweat through Arctic Monkeys and lose their minds to drum and bass, all fuelled by drinks deals that won't devastate your overdraft. The crowd skews young and enthusiastic, which means the energy levels are relentless from doors open until the 4am finish. Don't expect craft cocktails or sophisticated lighting – this is about cramming as many bodies as possible into a converted warehouse and letting the music do the talking. It's messy, it's loud, and it's exactly what you want when you're 20 and invincible.
