Go back in time to Peterborough's 80s and 90s nightclubs
Shanghai Sam’s icon and renowned 5th Avenue DJ Paul Stainton is set to make a triumphant return to the decks for a special performance at Peterborough Cathedral. Scheduled for Saturday, August 17th, in the Nave, Paul will perform a guest set alongside DJ Asif Shaheed.
Paul, whose sets became synonymous with Shanghai Sam’s and 5th Avenue in the 80s and 90s, has been lured out of retirement for this exclusive one-night engagement.

Paul has not touched the decks for over 25 years, after swapping nightclubs for radio and television but said he was lured back by the chance to perform at the Cathedral, where he now works as head of marketing & communications;
“ I have played some massive venues in my time but none as iconic and amazing as the Cathedral,” said Paul.
"It's a chance to roll back the years and relive the memories of Peterborough’s great clubs like Shanghai Sam’s, Rinaldo’s, 5th Avenue etc and enjoy the music of that era once again.”
