 Sub
Down in the darker depths of Cruz101 is Sub. The underground club gives Cruz an extra floor and a second DJ on busy nights, but is also very much a club in its own right.

Cruz 101
A Manchester gay staple for more years than we can remember, Cruz 101 is everything a gay club should be: A touch of camp, a bit of glitz and more than its fair share of gorgeous boys and girls... it’s no surprise that the crowds keep piling back for more! Between its variety of homegrown nights and outside promotions there’s something to tickle everyone’s fancy.

Indie heaven in the form of a regular party at Mutz Nutz, just around the corner from Canal Street. If you've never been then you've been missing out. This is your chance to bop around to the most pogo-inducing indie, grunge and trash that you can imagine.
