Music is a fundamental part of Bench‘s DNA, evident since day one when the brand launched at the height of Manchester’s iconic Madchester movement. Spearheaded by well-known names such as The Hacienda, New Order, Stone Roses, The Smiths, 808 State and Happy Mondays, the era that revolutionized the 24-hour lifestyle.

With music always intrinsic to their plans, from Dpercussion Festival in Manchester in the 2000’s and later the illustrious Warehouse Project, Bench has since partnered with iconic music festivals including Melt! In Germany, Nuit Sonores and Astropolis in France s well as Sonar, Dcode and Benicassim in Spain.

Bench continues to support emerging musical talent.
