Tourist guide to Manchester gay nightlife
Gay Manchester was put on the map by the famous Queer As Folk series. Millions of gays were stuck to their tv set to follow the lives of 4 Manchester boys wondering around Canal Street. This Gay Strip offers some of the biggest gay bars and clubs in the UK.
Best time to go is during Manchester Gay Pride, mostly held at the last weekend of August. The whole block of the Gay Village where all the gay bars and clubs are is sealed off for 4 days.
Gay Pride in Manchester is 4 days of partying from early afternoon till very late at night. Theres a lot to do for everyone: for people liking the bars, for clubbers, for lesbians, bears, leather guys etc. Everything comes together. It's definitely worth the visit.
Where to stay?
Most bars and clubs are concentrated in the Gay Village, the streets around Canal Street. All the fun is on walking distince. Be clever and book a hotel nearby. .
