No Art announces largest ever UK show with open-air Manchester debut

The cult No Art event series will make its Manchester debut with a new open-air event on Saturday 30 May 2026. Curated by Amsterdam-based duo ANOTR, No Art Manchester Open Air marks the brand’s first full UK open-air showcase and its largest UK event to date.

Founded by Dutch duo ANOTR, No Art has built an international reputation for combining carefully curated electronic music programming with visual art and immersive production. Previous No Art events have taken place in cities including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Miami, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo, often using unconventional venues and prioritising emerging and forward-thinking artists alongside established names.

ANOTR are widely recognised for their genre-blending approach to house music, incorporating elements of disco, soul, funk and jazz. Their catalogue includes global successes such as Relax My Eyes, which has surpassed 200 million streams.

The Manchester edition will follow the same principles as previous No Art events by focusing on high-quality sound, considered production and a lineup designed to introduce audiences to new artists and ideas. Further announcements regarding the venue and full artist programme are expected shortly.

Presale tickets go on sale at 6pm on Tuesday 3 February, followed by general sale at 6pm on Wednesday 4 February. Fans can register for presale access via noartmcr.com.
