The 'Hollyoaks' stars, along with former 'Coronation Street' actor Glen Wallace, were among the guests at Liberté Rooftop for EE's unique event, which brought together simultaneous DJ sets from two iconic venues in the city, live over EE’s award-winning 5G network, to create a fun-filled evening in the city.

J Yousef, who harnessed EE’s 5G network for the event, said: "Getting the vibe right when you’re playing next to someone is one thing but going back-to-back with another DJ who is in a completely different location, where you can’t see their CDJ or where the track finishes was crazy. It was like doing a back-to-back blindfold."

The spectacular event was attended by a host of well-known faces, with the soap stars joined by the likes of Seema Malhotra from 'The Real Housewives of Cheshire' and presenter Chelcee Grimes.

Pete Jeavons, the marketing communications director at EE, hailed the innovative event as a big success.

He said: "We put the power of our network in the hands of the professionals, and together we made history. Pushing the limits of what has been done before, mixing live sets together from two different locations, to host an epic evening of entertainment that gave dance fans even more enjoyment.

"We’ve shown the potential of what 5G connectivity can unlock, and that’s a whole new world of collaboration and entertainment."

EE will be hosting another 5G-powered event in Manchester on Thursday (19.08.21), and though the bash - which will be headlined by superstar Hot Since 82, with DJ sets from DJ Paulette and Massey (Sprechen), levelled up with 5GEE-powered virtual performances from Neil Diablo and Gina Breeze - at the city's Hatch was sold out, a new batch of tickets will go on sale at 9am on Monday (16.08.21).
