Manchester City Centre Major Events
Manchester stages the best events and we are part of the picture.
CityCo, Manchester City Centre BID and Manchester Accommodation BID are proud to support the city’s civic and cultural events including Manchester Day, Manchester Pride and Christmas in the city.
We also stage our own public events to add vibrancy and help attract extra footfall and custom to our cross-sector business networks – all year round.

- Looney Tunes and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles street art trails
