MONGO - St Stephens Day Special 2011



Mongo St Stephens Day Special
December 26th 2011 @ The Grand Social
28 DJs & Live Acts.
Across 2 Floors & 3 Rooms.
6pm - 3am. ADM €10.
House. Hip Hop. Disco. Funk. Techno. Festive Party!


This Christmas Mongo is delighted to return to Dublin for a very special St Stephens Day Party. In the months since our last big outing at Pod, Mongo has been a highlight at both Mystik and Mansion festival and has seen us work alongside an array of quality house and techno acts along the way. So, with our recent road trips out of the way, we move into our new winter home, The Grand Social!

With 2 floors, 3 rooms & a spacious smoking area, its the perfect space to continue where we left off last summer. Expect the usual variety of musical delights, from a quality local line up, that have become accustomed with Mongo parties since our incarnation! This time though, we add a festive touch...

Last summers mammoth parties saw us bring together Dublin's finest DJ's, producers and party goers (that's you) to create an unmissable atmosphere that was enjoyed by so many. This party will be no different. We’ll welcome home some forgotten Irish ex-pats from their various escapades abroad and bring them together with the usual mix of your favourite residents from around the city.

The Attic will be transformed into a techno haven with Sunil Sharpe, Fran Hartnett, Giles Armstrong, Discipline DJs + others taking to the controls. The Downstairs Club Room will see man of the moment, and the newest member of the Minus family,Matador headline with support from Mongo residents Al Keegan & Aaron Nolan, resident advisors Saoirse Ryan & many others. The Bar offers up something completely different with a headline set from former DMC World Champion DJ Tu-Ki, a special festive Hugh Cooney Show and lots of quality funk, disco and festive fun throughout...

Doors open from the earlier time of 6pm, and to help pry you from the comfort of the couch and onslaught of Xmas Tv, all of the above will come in at the princely sum of only €10. That's less than the price of a pair of penny's Xmas socks... We also guarantee a selection box of excellent drink promos on the day to ease the financial strain of Christmas and as per usual, please feel free to help spread the good word to any fellow party goers or sound heads who might be interested in coming along!!

Heres to a very merry MONGO Christmas !

One of the biggest success stories seen in Dublin clubbing this summer, with a string of monster sellout parties in Dublin’s POD venue and with an almost over night cult following, MONGO have been responsible for some of the finest daytime outings Dublin has seen in recent times. And while the summer comes to a close and the final few festivals draw near, the people’s party plans to hit the road as it puts into place its first Autumn outing! Heading for the hills this September 17th & 18th MONGO will host a very special, secret garden party as part of this years Mystik Musik Festival.

Taking place in the magical surroundings of Poulaphouca house and gardens in Co Wicklow and just an hour outside Dublin City, the MONGO secret garden party will be one of four areas at this year's Mystik Fest. With an already jam packed line up of international and local talent featuring many top House and Techno names such as KAISERDISCO. JOSEPH CAPRIATI. FILTERHEADZ. DAVE SEAMAN. FERGIE. IAN O DONOVAN (Bedrock) . Fran Hartnett. Sunil Sharpe. Rory St John. Jon Hussey. Niall Power. Jay Grogan. Will Kinsella. Surge Dj's & many more... Plus now with the addition of MONGO’s all star cast, expect a great weekend all round!

With gates opening early Saturday giving us two full days to play with, MONGO plan to host their first two day event in their own unique way, expect all the same great elements that have helped make the party such a great day for all, a quality and diverse selection of music, a handpicked selection of the finest homegrown DJs, producers and live acts and a top crowd (that’s you!) that always bring the noise! Now all we need to do is figure out how to divert the luas…. Hmmmm.....
