USS runs from Friday 9 October through Sunday 11 October at Aviva Studios (Factory International). Expect an extended format club event curated by Chris Stussy, with the full USS experience across the weekend. This is 18+ only.
The vibe
USS is built on immersion and presence. The no-phone policy sets the tone immediately—you're there to actually experience the music and space, not document it. At Aviva Studios' impressive scale, expect the kind of thoughtfully programmed, high-energy club environment that's made USS a destination event. It's underground without the gatekeeping, serious without being po-faced.
Getting tickets
Tickets are available now through Skiddle. Pricing varies by day and tier, so check the listing for current availability. Book early—USS events have a loyal following and capacity is limited.
