Dj Yousef, Circus founder said: “The First Dance is going to be a historic moment for electronic music and all events across the UK. As the date nears and the weekend of events becomes closer to a reality, me and the team at Circus all share an almost overwhelming feeling of pride, emotion, excitement and of course responsibility for what lies ahead”. He added: “Together with the team at Liverpool City Council, we have safely crafted these events together, with a singular focus to help the UK get closer to life beyond Covid, which for myself and Circus has been a great honour”.

The event won’t be socially distanced or require face coverings. Liverpool’s Director of Public Health Matt Ashton said: “The ERP is all about getting back to doing what we love doing, safely”. He continued: “Staying in lockdown is not an option, so we need to understand what the best and safest way of reopening key events is. Thanks to promoters such as Circus, we are going to be able to gather vitally important scientific research which will provide a blueprint to opening up vital sectors of our economy locally and nationally”.

Tickets to ‘The First Dance’ are available via TicketQuarter and cost £32.50. The event is for those over the age of 18 from Liverpool area only as this is part of scientific experiment. Also, only one ticket can be purchased per person. Ticket holders will have to take a Lateral Flow Test at one of the city’s community testing sites and show a negative result at the entrance. Doors will open from 2pm.
