It seems the time has come to start thinking New Years Eve plans, and Purple Sneakers has once again delivered an enticing option. Held across three levels at The Manning Bar, The Purple Sneakers NYE House Party has a party-hardy line-up on board.

The Grates will ensure 2010 gets off to a dazzling start, alongside international guests Ponytail (read the glowing review of their album on FL), The Boxer Rebellion and Baddies. The local team is well-represented too, with Red Riders, Philadelphia Grand Jury and DZ letting the good times roll till the wee hours. Tickets go on sale 9 October.
