To do list: How to celebrate the Pride Bank Holiday weekend in Spinningfields

From the parade and unmissable live music, to the enviable selection of colourful food and drink deals on offer, there’s literally loads to do during the Manchester Pride August Bank Holiday weekend. Lucky for us, we don’t have to look too far to find a handy guide on how to make the most of this long-weekend of inclusivity. The folks at Spinningfields have pulled together a one-stop round-up of some of the best events, deals and takeovers happening in this fancy end of town throughout the August Bank Holiday weekend. There’s lots to enjoy, too – from photo opportunities with a giant inflatable paintbrush, right down to super cool (and colourful) Pride-themed Costa coffee cups – this area of town is going all-out in celebration of Manchester Pride 2019, making visitors spoiled for choice. There’s loads of events worth mentioning – but if we had to pick just a few, we’d probably point you towards the carnival performers and dancing champagne pourers at The Ivy’s Pride-themed Roof Garden Party, Hey Little Cupcake!’s selection of rainbow coloured sweet treats and the 2-for-1 cocktails to be found at Pot Kettle Black.
