While a name and age hasn’t been released, the Manchester Evening News reports that a man in his early 20s was taken to the hospital after becoming sick. The incident occurred on the morning of Saturday, April 9th at MK – Return to Manchester, an event that saw MK perform at the Mayfield Depot.

Greater Manchester Police confirmed the death in a statement on Sunday, April 10th. “Officers were called to a report of a death of a male at a hospital this morning. A male in his 20s was taken ill at Warehouse Project in the city centre in the early hours on Saturday (9 April) and taken to hospital where he sadly died on Sunday afternoon,” they wrote. At this time, they are not treating his death as suspicious.

A spokesperson for The Warehouse Project also released a statement, saying that that they have “sadly learnt that he has since [being sent to the hospital] passed away. At this stage, we do not know any further details or cause of death. Our thoughts are very much with his family and friends.”

This is not the first time authorities have been called to The Warehouse Project. In October of last year, two men were stabbed at one of their events.

“At around 12:40am on Sunday, October 3rd, police were called to reports of a double stabbing on Travis Street, Manchester,” said a police spokesperson. “Enquiries have established that an altercation occurred at a club between a group of people before two of them were stabbed.”

“Emergency services attended and two men – aged 20 and 21 – were taken to the hospital with stab wounds which were not deemed life threatening,” they continued. “No arrests have been made and enquiries are still ongoing.”

The spokesperson called on the Manchester community for information regarding the attacks, stating, “Anyone with information should contact police using the LiveChat function at www.gmp.police.uk or call 101, quoting incident number 140 of 03/10/21,” they wrote. “Reports can also be made anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”

The Warehouse Project’s organizers have yet to make an official statement.

Beginning in 2006 as an underground party at Strangeways Brewery in Manchester, The Warehouse Project has grown into a large seasonal club event. Each season typically runs from September to New Years Day and the brand has been featured in DJ Mag‘s top 100 clubs list numerous times, peaking at #11 in 2020.
