Salford-based beer company ShinDigger will be hosting a series of free parties this August, featuring some of the biggest names in music as part of its annual Shingri-La Festival. Following the cancellation of their residency at Talbot Mill, the indie beer company will be welcoming names like Dr. Banana, Mafalda, Alexander Nut and Nabihah Iqbal, while offering up a variety of beers from their summer range.
Taking place at Adelphi Lads Club in Salford, which recently reopened as a bar and music venue, the first residency kicks off on August 6 with an event curated by Jenna G. Artists on the bill include Salford DJ and producer Strategy, who was a member of the original Adelphi Lads Club as a young boy and has released an EP entitled ‘The Adelphi Lads Club’, and will perform alongside Aletha, Lena C, and Mystique.
Shingri-La will continue for the month of August with the line-up promising to deliver a month of performers never seen before in Manchester. Steam Radio will take to the decks - and live stream - on August 13 with Nabihah Iqbal, and Salary Boy among others. The lineup continues on August 20 with performers such as Mafalda, Alexander Nut and Leon Riley.

The Adelphi Lads Club will also be serving a menu to soak up the booze with pizza from Talk to Me Pizza. Highlights will include the ‘Salami’ with San Marzano tomatoes, Fior Di Latte, Pepperoni, Salami Milano, Piquillo Peppers, Oregano and Basil; ‘Twisted Hawaiian’ with San Marzano tomatoes, Fior Di Latte, Crispy Prosciutto, Pineapple Glaze and Piquillo Peppers; and their entirely vegan pizza, ‘The Plaintain’, a Plantain base with vegan mozzarella, caramelised onions, pickled scotch bonnets, garlic oil, oregano and basil.
If pizza isn’t your thing, there will also be wings from London-based duo Wing Tings, who will be in residency from Thursday with chicken wings and chicken tender sandwiches. BBQ, buffalo, and chilli are among the sauces on offer - an ideal accompaniment to the Adelphi Lads Club IPA.
The Adelphi Lads Club was originally founded by teacher Walter Southern in 1888, as a place to keep impoverished kids off the street and out of trouble. It quickly became the centre of the community before closing its doors in 2008.
A couple of months ago it reopened as a bar and music venue, with one of the biggest beer gardens in the area and even features its own bespoke DJ booth. The venue has been designed to pay homage to the original Adelphi Lads Club with exposed brickwork and floor tiles, and a custom concrete bar offset by the repurposed leather seating salvaged from venues around the UK.
Entry to The Adelphi Lads Club is free, more details can be found here.
