Love beer, food and fun? Enter our competition to win two tickets to the grand opening night of the Independent Manchester Beer Convention 2016 (IMBC). This is your chance to drink the world’s best beer in the aquatic/historic surrounds of Victoria Baths. The inimitable festival has made its name by serving up the very best craft and new wave beers from around the world. This year’s event is bigger and better too, with rooms curated by names like Cloudwater and Wild Beer Co. Expect festival specials and one-off brews galore. IMBC is famous for serving the finest street food in the land – confirmed names include Bundobust’s Indian delights and vegan creations from Mother May I – basically, it’s a Manchester must-do. Our IMBC competition winner will secure two tickets to the opening night session (Thu 6 Oct, 5.30-11.30pm), with a selection of beer tokens thrown in for good measure. Beer fans will be thrilled to note that the Thursday/Friday brewery line up at IMBC is different to the Saturday/Sunday line-up, so if you’ve already got a ticket for later in the weekend, there’s no reason not to pay the highlight of the drinking year a visit twice. To be in with a chance of winning this excellent prize, simply send an email to competitions [at] ManchesterWire [dot] co [dot] uk, with your name, aged, Twitter handle and phone number with ‘IMBC competition’ in the subject line. Entries must be received by midnight on Monday 12 September and winners will be announced on Tuesday 13 September.

Thu 6-Sun 9 Oct, Victoria Baths, Hathersage Road, Manchester, M13 0FE, available sessions Thu 5.30-11.30pm & Sun: 1-7pm, £8.50, www.indymanbeercon.co.uk
