Gay Events Manchester

What's On This Week.

Manchester Pride isn’t just a party, it’s a full-blown, glitter-drenched riot of joy. Every August, the city transforms into a fierce celebration, with Canal Street at the beating heart of the action. Expect show-stopping parades, big-name performers, and enough sequins to blind a small country.

Manchester’s gay nightlife isn’t just a scene, it’s a spectacle. At the heart of it all is Canal Street, the city’s infamous Gay Village, where glitter meets grit and the party never knows when to go home. Start your night at Via, a gloriously cabaret haven that serves live performances and features drag queens with more sass than sense in a huge space.

Swing over to Eagle, where DILF (one of the UK’s steamiest gay dance parties). It’s loud, it’s sweaty, and hosts monthly across eight UK cities & quarterly in Gran Canaria. Welcome to Manchester, where the nights are loud, the queens are louder, and Canal Street is never, ever quiet.
