On Friday 13th February, tech-house titan Sam Divine is coming to 24 Kitchen Street in Liverpool for a very special showcase. Having recently announced the 555 Tour, the Liverpool event is a run of five intimate UK shows that aim to highlight the need to support independent music venues.
The tour is taking place throughout February and March, created in collaboration with Save Our Scene. Designed as a full-circle moment in her 25-year career, the tour sees Sam return to the kind of grassroots venues that shaped her early journey, delivering extended five-hour, open-to-close sets with a strict no-phone policy to reconnect dancefloors with the raw essence of club culture.
The 555 Tour will take place across five UK cities throughout February and March, kicking off on 13th February at 24 Kitchen Street in Liverpool, before heading to Lost Horizon in Bristol on 27th February and Patterns in Brighton on 28th February. The tour continues on 6th March at Move in Exeter, before concluding on 14th March at Joshua Brooks in Manchester.
Each show champions accessibility and community, with £5 early bird tickets, reinforcing the tour’s core ethos: protecting independent venues and nurturing authentic dancefloor connection. Speaking on the concept behind the tour, Sam Divine says: “The 555 All Night Long tour is a journey through genres and authentic connections. Reviving the lost art of the warm-up, setting the tone for the night and playing records that I’ve collected over two decades.”
She continues: “Implementing a no-phone policy was important to me – creating those magical moments with no distractions. It’s essential for me to give back to grassroots venues. After all, these are the venues that helped build the very foundations of my career in the early, early days. We must protect these spaces. We must Save Our Scene.”
A powerhouse of electronic music, Sam Divine has spent the last 25 years carving out a legacy as a DJ, producer and label owner. A long-standing figure within the Defected family and founder of Dvine Sounds, she has headlined global festivals including EXIT and Tomorrowland.
During her career, she has held residencies at every club on the white isle including Ushuaïa Ibiza, Amnesia, Pacha, Eden and Sankeys to name a few and toured extensively worldwide. In 2024 alone, she played over 100 shows, appeared on the cover of DJ Mag, and was awarded Best House DJ at the DJ Awards in Ibiza.
Now entering a new era, “Sam 2.0”, Divine is embracing personal growth, wellbeing and creative evolution. Drawing from her roots in garage, drum & bass and Hip Hop, her forthcoming album ‘Sky’s The Limit’ reflects the full breadth of her musical DNA as she launches her 555 Record Label.
Alongside this, she continues to champion women in electronic music through her Divine Tribe community, promoting self-empowerment, longevity and authenticity in an often-relentless industry. The 555 concept also builds on a series of standout global showcases, including a London takeover, events in Ibiza, New York, Malta and Sydney, and a landmark ADE showcase.
More than a tour, 555 is a statement: a reminder of the power of local dancefloors, shared moments, and music experienced fully in the present. By partnering with Save Our Scene, Sam Divine places the spotlight firmly on the future of independent venues and the communities that keep them alive.
