Manchester has a sound like no other. Forming the backbone of iconic bands like Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Smiths, New Order, Happy Mondays and many (many) more, there’s always something new to tune into.

With a wealth of new music launching onto the scene, from homegrown talent to global exports, our venues are also second to none, such as Manchester Arena, the O2 Apollo and plenty of independent spots that are just waiting for you to explore.
When it comes to treating your eyes and ears, Manchester has it in spades.
