The Hacienda: The Club That Shook Britain tells the incredible story of a revolution which rose up from within the walls and dancefloor of a former warehouse in central Manchester. 

The Hacienda, the legendary club and music venue, unleashed the acid house and rave scene and was at the forefront of youth culture in the 80s’ and early 90s’. 

Formerly a yacht warehouse, The Hacienda was founded by Factory Records and the band New Order, and opened to the public in 1982. Timed to coincide with the 40th anniversary year of the opening of this iconic club, the documentary charts the Hacienda’s cultural legacy which is still as strong as ever. 

The star-studded documentary features interviews with some of the ‘key players’ in the club’s history from Peter Hook and Stephen Morris (Joy Division/New Order), to famous club-regulars such as Noel Gallagher and Shaun Ryder.
