After five incredible years beneath the streets, the last ever Warehouse Project event at Store Street will finish in the early hours of January 2, 2012. Within 48hrs all evidence that WHP ever existed in that space will be gone, nothing remaining to give any indication that hundreds of thousands of people passed through those doors.
The last ever show at Store Street will take the form of a fifteen-hour marathon taking us into 2012. Headline artists will be on from the start, and if you want to catch the full line-up you need to come down early.
There will be plenty of extra provisions for food and drink to keep you sustained, and please pace yourself as many may have been out on NYE also.
We look forward to sharing a very special night with you.
