Let’s be real here, it’s the end of summer and the gloomy weather isn’t doing much for our spirits.
So, to help pluck you up, we’ve rounded up a handful of exciting things to do in and around the city that’ll lift your spirits while looking after your wallet.
From disco club nights in a brand-new Gay Village hotspot to family-friendly silent discos – here’s our rundown of the best free things to do in Manchester this week…
Start the weekend antics off early at Escape to Freight Island this Thursday for Casa Latina, a dive into the heart and soul of Latin culture.
Attendees can expect all the funkiest Latin House, Samba, Reggaeton and more whilst dancing the night away with the Samba De Janeiro crew.
Head over to Levenshulme this Friday night for a full-evening affair of all the best classic R&B, Jazz dance, Soul and Motown brought to you by Steve The Beard.
Steve will be bringing an impressive 50 years of record collecting to the fore so swing by, have a boogie and see where the night takes you.
If you’ve yet to check out Gay Village’s latest addition, MAYA, then this Friday night is your chance as the lovely lot from DISCO PUSS are throwing a ‘disco night with a difference’.
All about paying homage to the one and only ‘Maya Jama’, attendees can expect all the best in Disco and Disco House, along with free kitty ears and free drinks if you get there early enough.
Take your little ones down to Kargo this weekend where they can enjoy a silent disco soundtracked by all the best Disney bangers.
Best suited for those three years old and over, your kids will be able to choose from three channels to listen to Disney classics from A Whole New World to Do You Want To Build A Snowman and everything in between.

HOME has just announced a brand-new exhibition, A Place at the Table, launching on Monday in the venue’s Inspire Gallery.
Working collaboratively with poet Phil Davenport and artist Christine Johnson, this hard-hitting exhibition features poster poems by people from Manchester during the cost-of-living crisis.
The new exhibition invites visitors to appreciate the wit, wordplay, and distinct perspectives on food and everyday life that are shared within the collection of poetry and rhymes. Audiences can expect to be met with candid words and genuine expressions of the challenges facing people experiencing poverty locally.
