It operates five nights a week with a serious soundsystem and parties four nights a week across three strands: Ramona Live, Ramona Club and Ramona Radio (the latter hosting local and international artists every Wednesday). The programme spans house, disco, techno, UK garage, balearic, jungle, dub, afrobeats, funk and soul, grime and more, with entry to events completely free. A free-spirited, design-led fixture of the Northern Quarter / Ancoats scene. Contact: 0161 441 9020 / reservations@takemetoramona.com.
