Ministry of Sound is reviving a number of classic club nights that have been held at the venue during its storied history. The series, dubbed From The Archives, will begin this month.
The first date will see The Gallery return on Saturday 29th November after a 10-year hiatus. One of the most legendary parties to grace the world-famous address was founded in 1995 by Tall Paul and ran at Ministry of Sound for around a decade following the closure of its original home, Turnmills.
The weekly gathering was considered a cornerstone of Britain's trance and progressive house scenes. For From the Archives, music will run from 1PM - 9PM courtesy of Mauro Picotto, Sander Van Doorn, Simon Patterson, Tall Paul, Seb Fontaine and Ashley Wallbridge. Bookings aim to represent different eras of The Gallery. Tickets are on sale now.
From the Archives will then host Rulin' in 2026, a house music session that first launched at Ministry of Sound in 1994. It was famed for championing US flavours of the genre. Next year will also see the one-off return of Frisky.
Earlier this year, Ministry of Sound announced a series of sober raves in association with DRIIA. In April, the venue staged a 'break-in' and supposed 'illegal rave', which was later confirmed as a marketing stunt paying homage to British rave culture.
