Gatecrasher (later Crasher) is a dance music event formerly held at the venue Gatecrasher 1, previously Republic, in Sheffield, England. Its organizers were Simon Raine, Simon Oates and (until 2004) Scott Bond. As of 2008, there are four Gatecrasher venues, located in the cities of Birmingham, Nottingham, Leeds and Sheffield.
Gatecrasher was first held in Birmingham in 1993 in the 'engine house'. The night originally took its form from similar local clubs such as 'Fun', 'Wobble', 'Miss Moneypenny's' and C.R.E.A.M. The club later moved to Bakers nightclub on Broad Street, but became so popular that larger events were organized in other locations in and around the West Midlands.
