- Rozzo will help blow out the candles at three parties this weekend with the Glasgow institution.
- Glasgow's underground institution, Sunday Circus, reaches its second birthday this weekend, and they'll be celebrating with three parties with special guest Rozzo, the co-founder of Switzerland's minimal/deep house imprint Mountain People. Sunday Circus, the monthly afternoon-to-evening event, has become the stuff of local legend since its beginnings at Glasgow's Courtyard Bar. Serving up a blend of deep house and techno and drawing inspiration from Circo Loco and London's secretsundaze, the party initially aimed to "provide a great party with friends, listening to the music we love whether it brought in 50 people or 150 people" at the outdoor, two-level venue. Word has quickly spread about the shindig, though, and Sunday Circus events now regularly sell-out in advance, and attract big hitters such as Argy, Burnski, Jamie Jones and Matthias Tanzmann. This weekend's proceedings open at Glasgow's Arches Cafe Bar on Saturday evening (11-3am), with Rozzo joining residents Affi and Ronnie before taking over the Courtyard from 3 PM Sunday. And those with the stamina may wish to join the Sunday Circus collective at the weekend's final party being held in Stereo from 11pm.
