Adding extra heat to the night will be the debut performance of Manchesta Blu, described as a mysterious hard house local legend performing under a new electro house alias. This intriguing new project is being billed as a must-see addition to an already stacked lineup.

B!TE has quickly carved out its niche in Melbourne’s late-night scene, offering a distinctive blend of Latin bass, house grooves, progressive beats, and sexy bongos – all delivered with what organisers call “a house party vibe at its core” within the iconic CBD venue.

The second edition will feature an impressive five-artist lineup with Fosters, Manchesta Blu, Mimi, Mimosa, and Telefixa all taking to the decks. With such diverse talents on display, attendees can expect a genre-bending night that spans the spectrum of house music.

In a city known for its often-pricey nightlife, B!TE stands out by offering free entry via RSVP – a welcome relief for house heads on a budget. The Toff’s central location on Swanston Street also makes it easily accessible for late-night revellers from across Melbourne.

For those looking to make a full evening of it, The Toff opens from 5pm and offers bar snacks, with table bookings available for those wanting to line their stomachs before the dance floor heats up at 11pm.

The venue itself adds character to the proceedings, with The Toff being one of Melbourne’s most beloved music spaces. Perched on the second floor of the historic Curtin House, it provides an intimate setting that enhances the communal, house party atmosphere B!TE aims to create.

With its focus on inclusivity and musical exploration, B!TE Vol 2 looks set to further establish itself as a noteworthy addition to Melbourne’s diverse late-night offerings. Whether you’re a dedicated house aficionado or simply looking for a good time in the CBD, this free event promises to deliver beats, community, and those all-important sexy bongos well into the early hours.
