What is Friendz Parties?

"Music is well said to be the speech of angels; in fact, nothing among the utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near to the infinite" (Thomas Carlyle)


As with most other promotions Friendz originated from house parties organised by a group of friends.

The first official Friendz party in a public venue was held in May 2003 at Sahara Nights. The idea was to have an afternoon party, inside in wintertime and outside in summer time. Friendz organisers copied the concept from the incredible party experiences they encountered at HeatUK during 2002 when it was still a day party with the most uplifting and energetic music around.

The idea was also to keep the party as intimate as possible, hence a party for friends and friends of friends. A party where like minded people can get together on a monthly basis. As with HeatUk this attribute was copied from a club called Laby in Zurich. The name "Friendz" speaks for itself. Note the "z" for Zurich.

Friendz organisers decided not to promote Friendz for the 1st year. Thus giving the party time to establish a culture before taking it to the next level.

The vision was a small quality party with a friendly, electric vibe generated by a mature party crowd.

With Wynand Delport, Lachlan Doolan and Dirk Laubcher (no big name dj's) and having a no promoting policy, Friendz parties had to be exceptional to survive.

The last 4 years Friendz has established itself as a brilliant Saturday afternoon party.

Today Friendz has a vibe and attitude that you rarely find these days . The regulars at Friendz are there for one thing ... Quality trance music!! The music policy is simple ... It has to be uplifting!!

Friendz has hosted sell out boat parties in the summer, packed monthly events at Turnmills T2 and was invited to Ibiza with HeatUK this year to host their legendary boat party to Formentura.

Guest DJ's for Friendz have included an array of trance talent from the likes of K90, Ian Betts, Steve Blake, Lee Haslam, Brad Thatcher, Ben Alonzi, Charlie Rox, Marc Antoine, Neil MD, Julien and many more...


Friendz can only be looking forward to great times ahead.
