We’re mixing it up this week. With the return of live music (socially distanced, of course) we thought we’d give you a selection of livestreams and in-person gigs you can catch over the next seven days to ease you back into normality – from a special online event at Glastonbury’s Worthy Farm, to a musical showcase in a Northern Quarter venue. Let’s take a look…
We Are Manchester are live and in person this week with the re-opening of a special Northern Quarter venue. This Friday 21 May, head down to Aatma from 6pm for a great line-up of acts. On the bill are Mark Radcliffe’s Une, Suave Martyrs, Dalmas and Tom Long from Easter. This ticketed event (priced at £7.59) is extremely limited – so get your skates on and grab one now.
The team at Glastonbury present something special this weekend. Live At Worthy Farm will be a global online event taking place on Saturday 22 May from 7pm (with encore screenings on Sunday 23 May). Featuring a mega line-up of acts from Coldplay and Kano to Wolf Alice and Jarvis Cocker – further surprise guests will also feature filmed across the iconic festival site. Tickets can be purchased from the official website (linked below) and are priced at £20. This amazing uninterrupted five-hour evening of music and spoken word is not to be missed.
