To kick off 2026 HAVEN are back with twice the sweat across 2 nights with 2 international guests on the Galaxy Arcade dance-floor at DOUBLE HAVEN…On Friday 9th January we are very excited to be inviting UK techno and bass legend TASHA to take over the arcade floor. As the boss of the Neighbourhood label and club nights she has had a vital role in shaping contemporary underground dance music alongside her long-standing Rinse FM residency that began in 2009. With sets that flow seamlessly from her UK bass and DnB roots through to 4x4 techno and broken beat sounds she has been in-demand across clubland internationally - with a residency at Open Ground in Wuppertal and regular performances at the likes of Berghain, Fabric, Fold, Nowadays NYC and key festival moments at Glastonbury, Freerotation, Stone Techno, Outlook and more. To top that off she has a stack of b2b sets with some of dance music’s finest selectors - including Skee Mask, Ben Sims, Alienata, Steffi, The Lady Machine and more - showing her versatility as a DJ.
Topping off this night we have Tender Buttons founder and Ōtautahi queer icon KATE.LAND opening up the sweat-box, while HAVEN co-founder KEEPSAKES will go b2b with returning local legend KEANU RAVES for the warm-up set for our esteemed guest…

On Saturday 10th January we switch up the mood with bass and breaks techno crossovers on the menu with London future classic MANI FESTO stepping up to the HAVEN booth for the first time. With a towering catalogue of releases on the likes of WNCL, Sherelle’s Hooversound, Rupture, Shall Not Fade, and on HAVEN he is at the forefront of contemporary rave sounds. This alongside his participation in the Club Glow collective with Borai, Denham Audio and LMajor has led to a busy international touring schedule - that will also see him grace the Twisted Frequency stage for the second time this year. From UK hardcore, to techno, to thumping electro - Mani Festo is committed to the craft of heavyweight rhythms and mind-melting moments.
Rounding out the second evening we have HAVEN resident and returning 03 legend EBB opening up proceedings, with local break-beat mystics DUFFY and MADAM MIM bringing the jungle tekno for a speedy closing set…
