Our venue is fully wheelchair accessible with step free access via a lift.

Is Rough Trade Liverpool wheelchair accessible?

Accessible seating can be requested prior to the event through dice.fm/contact or by contacting us directly. Please note that we only have a very limited number of seats available for sold out events.

Can I arrange accessible seating?

Free PA and Carer tickets can be added onto an existing ticket by reaching out to dice.fm/contact. If possible please request these as soon as possible after purchase of your original ticket to ensure availability. These spots are limited for sold out events.

How do I get a carer/PA ticket?

Unless stated, there is just one set with no support, these are usually shorter than your average headline set. They’re between 30-50 minutes, playing songs from the new release. There is an hour between the door time and the stage time.

How long is the show and is there a support act?

Yes! We will always aim to get all event orders signed. Although this sometimes depends on the artist's schedule. We keep event stock for 1 week before returning it to our warehouse. If you can’t pick it up within a week please contact the store of your event.

I can’t attend the show! Can I still get my record signed?

Unfortunately no, if general entry/free entry tickets aren’t listed there is no way to buy a ticket without an album.

I don’t have a CD/Record player, can I just buy a ticket for the gig?

Sometimes this is possible, sometimes not. It all depends on if we have extra stock on the night!

Can I upgrade my CD to an LP or the other way around on the night?

We want everyone to enjoy their moment at these special intimate events. Although this is solely at the discretion of the artist or their management, there may be some cases where they don’t want photos.

If there is a signing at the event, can I have a photo with the artist?

This is purely at the discretion of the artist and management.

If there is a signing at the event, can I bring other stuff to get signed?

When you arrive, a member of staff will scan your ticket and give you your pre-order upon entry. In some cases the album will be shipped and there will be a print to be signed instead. You won’t be able to collect the album on the way out after the event.

Where do I pick up my album?

The doors and set times are listed on your DICE ticket and on the DICE event. This differs from store to store.

How do I know when it starts?

**THE GARY NUMAN LIVE EXPERIENCE 1979/80**

Since relaunching the band to the live circuit in 2021 with their new "Gary Numan"; frontman Chris Fielding (Chris appeared on the popular ITV show "Stars in their Eyes" as Gary Numan) Tubeway Days - The Gary Numan Live Experience 1979/80 have been thrilling audiences with their stunning performances replicating the Gary Numan early era classic songs in UK venues

As the popularity of the band continues to grow, so does the demand from many Gary Numan fans requesting a show in their towns and cities, so it is pleasing for the team to finally reach Cardiff and give the Numan fans in the city the show they have been requesting for some time

Recreating the shows of the original Gary Numan 1979 and 80 tours is giving fans the opportunity to relive what was the pinnacle of Numan's career and for those that missed out, then Tubeway Days are giving everyone the chance to experience exactly what they were like in all their original synth dominating glory. All the attention to detail to recreate the sounds, images and stage show of this early era of Numan history makes this a show not to be missed by any fan of Gary Numan and those pioneering bands when the sounds of synthpop and the new electronic music ruled the charts and airwaves

*"TUBEWAY DAYS AREN'T SO MUCH A TRIBUTE BAND BUT MORE A JOURNEY BACK IN TIME. THEY PERFORM THE ORIGINAL NUMAN SOUNDS OF ‘79 AND ‘80 SO ACCURATELY"* -Mik Scarlet, Blitzed! Magazine

**Noel Burke (ex-Echo & The Bunnymen) performs Reverberation**

**\+ Vernons Future**

**Doors: 7.30pm**

**Performance from 8pm**

**Tickets: £18 +BF**

Noel Burke was offered one of the most difficult gigs in rock when he was offered the job of fronting Liverpool legends, Echo & The Bunnymen, following the departure of enigmatic frontman, Ian McCulloch, in 1989.

The former St Vitus Dance frontman from Belfast joined up with remaining EATB members Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson and released the album Reverberation the following year in 1990.

Burke toured the UK and USA with Echo & The Bunnymen and released 2 further singles before the band dissolved in 1992.

Reverberation has gone on to become a cult classic and has gained more favourable reviews as the years have passed since its release.

Now on the 35th anniversary of the release of the album, Noel returns back to Liverpool with a full band to play the album in its entirety at Rough Trade on 29th November.

**Rough Trade Recommends presents: Pale Blue Eyes + WULL**

Rough Trade's new music showcase with some of the best up-and-coming acts in the alternative scene.

**Pale Blue Eyes (AOTY Top 100 2025!)**

PBE’s third album, New Place, is released on the band’s Broadcast Recordings label. Guests include two musicians who have featured in the PBE live line-up – Tom Sharkett, music producer and guitarist with W.H. Lung, and music producer and musician Lewis Johnson-Kellett.

“The new album comes with a new landscape,” says Matt, summing up. “I hope the result is uplifting. The album reflects the end of an era and embracing new beginnings. But when we were unpacking in our new house in Sheffield we found an old slide projector that had belonged to my parents. We spent hours looking through old 35mm slides and we decided to use one for the album cover. It feels like a lifetime of memories – but now beside a world of new beginnings.”

**Wull**

Wull are an explosive and versatile new band, formed in 2023. Drawing influence from the likes of Shame, Whipping Boy and The Prodigy, Wull channel the raw, rising energy of punk attitude while staying rooted in the music that shaped them. Their sound combines anthemic, melodic choruses with lyrics that delve into the inner thoughts and everyday struggles of modern life.

With early support from Steve Lamacq, John Kennedy, Dave Monks, and Amy Lamé, Wull are already making their mark.

**Sound Night Out Promotions + Moonfrog by arrangement with Midnight Mango** are delighted to announce **Millie Manders & The Shutup** are coming to Rough Trade Liverpool on Saturday 11th April 2026

Cross-genre punk rock is increasingly hard to ignore. With main stage appearances at notable festivals such as Slam Dunk, Beautiful Days and Rebellion, and extensive support from the likes of BBC Introducing and Radio X, the last two years have propelled MILLIE MANDERS AND THE SHUTUP into the public conscience and music industry at large.

Fronted by Millie Manders, whose staggering vocal dexterity, backed by grinding guitars and irresistible horns has huge pop appeal. The lyrics deliberate on themes of loss, betrayal, anger, anxiety, heartbreak and bitterness, environmental catastrophe and political unrest. With a conscience ensuring zero plastic wrapping on any merchandise, and that limited edition artwork and clothing are sold to help raise money for charities, Millie Manders and The Shutup are striving to make a difference whilst keeping us uplifted and brilliantly entertained.

The live shows are renowned for their power and contagious energy and 2026 sees MMATSU looking to release their highly anticipated third album.

**"MMATSU bring fierce and addictive ska punk with emotive and urgent lyrics; tipped as the UK's answer to The Interrupters with high octane live shows and attitude backed with morality ."**

**VIVE LE ROCK**

**"Millie as a front woman is a force to be reckoned with and her energy is electric- with her backing band to match"**

**BACKSEAT MAFIA**

**"No wonder the end of their set is followed by chants of "one more song!" from the crowd - rarely is Slam Dunk hit so hard, so early in the day"**

**PUNKTUATION MAG**

**"She's got an incredible voice." "There's just so much spirit in that band." John Kennedy, RADIO X Alex Baker,**
