Glasgow and Manchester to host Red Bull Music Academy series

Red Bull Music Academy brings its globetrotting series of festivals and workshops to the UK this Spring, with Glasgow and Manchester among the four host cities.

With Dimitri From Paris, Goat and Mount Kimbie listed among the bigger names on the bill, the Academy promises a wealth of concerts, club nights, art installations and lectures. Performances and workshops will feature a broad range of internationally-reknowned musicians and industry experts, alongside a selection of local talent selected via application.

The programme is set to include events at The Art School, Sub Club and The Glue Factory in Glasgow (26-29 Mar), with Sankeys, The Soup Kitchen and The Ritz heading the preliminary list of venues in Manchester (16-19 April).

The tour, also visiting Bristol (2-6 Apr) and London (6-10 Apr), has been a celebration of musical cultures (both local and global) since its inception in 1998. Further details, including application information and full venue listings, will be announced soon. For more information in the meantime, head here.
