25 YEARS OF<br />
BUGGED OUT<br />
One of the UK’s longest<br />
running club nights,<br />
Bugged Out hosted the<br />
likes of Daft Punk and<br />
<strong>The</strong> Chemical Brothers<br />
when they were just<br />
starting out. In 1996,<br />
Chicago house legend<br />
Green Velvet made his<br />
UK debut at the club<br />
– originally based at<br />
Manchester venue<br />
Sankeys Soap – and he<br />
returns to headline an<br />
anniversary celebration<br />
at this recently opened<br />
10,000-capacity venue<br />
in the former Mayfield<br />
railway station. An<br />
industrial blast from the<br />
past on all counts. Depot<br />

TREVOR NOAH<br />
It was the South African<br />
comic’s stand-up work<br />
that got him hired by<br />
Comedy Central’s <strong>The</strong><br />
Daily Show in 2014 (only<br />
to succeed John Stewart<br />
as its host less than a<br />
year later). See why as<br />
the man who made Time<br />
magazine’s ‘100 Most<br />
Influential People of<br />
2018’ list takes his tour<br />
on the road. 02 Arena,<br />

FREERIDE<br />
WORLD TOUR<br />
LIVE <strong>The</strong> jagged face<br />
of the Bec des Rosses<br />
in Verbier, Switzerland,<br />
is legendary among<br />
freeriders, which makes<br />
it perfect for the finale of<br />
the Freeride World Tour.<br />
Always a highlight, here’s<br />
a course that separates<br />
the best from the rest.<br />
Last year, Switzerland’s<br />
Elisabeth Gerritzen and<br />
France’s Wadeck Gorak<br />
won the skiing category,<br />
and Marion Haerty (FR)<br />
and Jonathan Penfield<br />
(US) took snowboarding<br />
gold. Will they repeat<br />
that success in <strong>2020</strong>?<br />
