Joy Crookes (recently nominated for a BRIT award) will be bringing her soulful R&B sounds to a gig at ibis Manchester. With support from genre-hopping Tobi Sunmola, and indie psychedelic synth band VELVET SHAKES, you can catch some real up-and-coming names in the music industry at this intimate gig.
If you’ve always wanted to try bouldering, this is the perfect event for you. Run completely for free by Never Stop Manchester, two coaches will be on hand at this beginners session to help you get to grips with climbing and meet like-minded active people who want to push themselves.
