Canal Street & the Gay Village

Canal Street has 40+ bars and clubs within a compact area — Via Manchester, The New Union, AXM, Cruz 101, and others. The Village is genuinely one of the most visible LGBTQ+ neighbourhoods in the UK; the street itself is iconic and well-maintained. Manchester Piccadilly station is a 10-minute walk; the Metrolink is closer.

Manchester Pride

August bank holiday weekend — approximately 170,000 people, generating over £14 million in economic impact. One of the largest Pride events in the UK. The Village is packed solid; book accommodation very early for this weekend.
