Rainy Heart is teaming up with Stretford-based hi-fi soundsystem collective Elody and Stretford town centre, for A Block Party, an all-day dance event on 30th August 2025, from 2-11pm.
Taking place at a location in Stretford, A Block Party invites people from across the community to come together for a one-of-a-kind celebration of music, creativity and togetherness. Expect an all-day dance party in true Rainy Heart and Elody fashion, complete with art, a killer hifi soundsystem and music to match.
Those familiar with an Elody or Rainy Heart party know the drill: no lineup details, music for dancing and creative expression. The exact location of the A Block Party will be revealed to ticket holders closer to the event.
Rainy Heart and Elody are Manchester based party starters and friends, dedicated to creating one-of-a-kind experiences for music lovers. Founded in Stretford, Rainy Heart have run several highly successful events across Stretford including ‘A Repeat Prescription’ in a former Boots unit and featuring DJs of note such as Luke Una, James Holroyd, Mr Scruff and Bradley Zero. Also based in Stretford, Elody are a hi-fi sound system collective focused on providing music for dancing, and parties for everyone.
Theo, Co-Founder of Elody said:
“A Block Party will be a celebration of how music can facilitate belonging, connect shared experiences, and build community. We’re thrilled to be teaming up with Rainy Heart once again and to be hosting a party in Stretford. Expect great music, plenty of dancing and lots of creative energy. See you there!”
