It’s back. This October, Manchester’s celebration of art and culture returns for its fourth year. As ever, it offers a weekend-long snapshot of the best the city has to offer, from Jeremy Deller at Manchester Art Gallery and Steve McQueen at IWM North to an Un-Convention along the Corridor. Vogue comes to town, Cornerhouse does Double Indemnity, and Manchester District Music Archive is at The Lowry.
In between are secret gigs, pop-up ‘zines, subcultural football, an exhibition in a day, pedal-powered cinema, gastro tours and A Highland Romance.
It’s a weekend of what we do best in Manchester: the informed, the strange, the cultured and the unforgettable.
A gentler day awaits for Manchester Weekenders on Sunday 13 October: things to do today include exhibitions (naturally), with added ‘zines, Sunday roasts, cycle tours, war art and a Media City, protest songs and Polari.
