A free pop-up rave in Manchester featuring Dutch DJ duo ANOTR was abruptly cancelled after chaos erupted at the venue, Projekts MCR Skatepark. Fans who could not enter began climbing fences, leading to police intervention. The event was meant to be first-come-first-served, but it appears more tickets were distributed than the venue could handle. Student Peter Gallagher, who attended, reported that the venue reached capacity quickly, and the DJs were only able to perform for 30 minutes. ANOTR's Jesse van der Heijden pleaded with fans outside to disperse to allow the event to continue, but ultimately, the performance was halted. ANOTR later expressed their disappointment on TikTok, stating that they had not oversold tickets and that the event's nature was clear from the start. While some attendees criticized the organization of the event, others placed blame on those who attempted to breach security, highlighting the challenges of managing such pop-up events.
