The Flight Club and Electric Shuffle team is embarking on a nationwide charity tour in celebration of Flight Club’s 10^th birthday and dishing out treats to its fans along the way  

Flight Club and its little sister, Electric Shuffle, are going on tour, and you’re invited! From the 3rd to the 22nd October, the team behind these glorious bars is touring the country in a fire engine (more on that later!), visiting Flight Club and Electric Shuffle venues nationwide to celebrate Flight Club’s 10^th birthday and to raise money for its charity – the Yellow Ball Foundation. 

The crew will stop off at Deansgate’s Electric Shuffle on 9th October and Flight Club King Street on 10th October. 

The team will park up the fire engine and spend the day dishing out goodies to passers-by. Locals should come along over the two days to join in the birthday celebrations and get their hands on some freebies.  

On the evening of the 9th October, Electric Shuffle Manchester will host a special charity tournament to raise money for 21 local and national charities, including Manchester’s Coffe4Craig, a charity helping people in crisis. On the 10th, Flight Club Manchester will host its charity tournament event, supporting the local charity, Empower, which builds youth zones in Manchester and Salford. 

This night of entertainment at Electric Shuffle and Flight Club promises to be one to remember. Starting at 6 pm and finishing at 9 pm, you’ll have the chance to unleash your competitive spirit and win incredible prizes—all while helping to support some amazing causes. 

Think: 

• 3 hours of gaming led by Flight Club’s gamesmasters

Why the fire engine? 

The Flight Club and Electric Shuffle team is no stranger to mammoth fundraising projects. In fact, a 2010 fundraising expedition around the globe in a fire engine (hence the fire engine connection) is where it all began for Flight Club.  

   

Co-founders Steve and Paul, CFO Ross and a crew of friends circumnavigated the planet in a fire engine in memory of Steve’s father, who spent 33 years serving as a firefighter. They raised £120,000 for three charities (Macmillan Cancer Support, The Fire Fighters Charity and The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation) and achieved a Guinness World Record.  

The expedition taught Steve and the crew the skills they needed to launch a business and, more importantly, underlined their passion for bringing groups of friends together for unforgettable moments of joy. Five years later, Flight Club was born, with the first venue opening in London’s Shoreditch. Fast-forward ten years, and there are now 28 Flight Club venues around the globe, with plenty more on the way.  

Fifteen years after Steve and the gang headed off on an incredible adventure around the world, “Martha,” the original fire engine, is coming out of retirement, especially for this special 10^th anniversary tour.
