Not been there for a good few years, but had plenty of messy nights there when i was in my early 20's
Used to jump on the GC coach in manchester outside 'The Collesium' at 7pm, and get dropped off again at 7am the next day
Dont think i could hack the pace anymore
Im more into beer and slippers these days

Im sure it will get rebuilt mate, hope so anyway, would be a massive loss to the trance heads around the country if not

Fire chiefs have reported it was started by a discarded ***.

the owner of Gatecrasher on hearing responded..

"I knew it, Bloody puff's burnt me club down"

its getting rebuilt.......



Simon Raine, Managing Director of Gatecrasher, said: “True to our own motto of “Never Stand Still” we will be moving forward to scope out how we put on our planned club nights in Sheffield during the summer. We will also be looking at how we rebuild the Gatecrasher One club, one of the cornerstones of the UK nightclub scene and our spiritual home, as quickly as possible. Gatecrasher One will be back…bigger, brighter, louder and more brash – it will always be with you.”
so now you know
