The 12 Greater Manchester summer festivals you can still get tickets for

We're only a few months into the year and already we've been treated with a feast of cultural events and musical experiences. Homegrown acts like Liam Gallagher have treated fans to new music, while major music venues like Co-op Live have seen acts including Elbow, The Black Keys and Barry Manilow grace the stage.

And there's plenty more to come as far as gigs and concerts are concerned. Meanwhile, the festival season is only just getting started. For Greater Manchester, the beginning of summer is marked by 80,000 revellers pouring into Heaton Park in early June for Parklife Festival, closely followed by a string of city centre and borough events spanning music, comedy, food and drink and the arts.

Even though popular festivals like Bluedot and Neighbourhood Weekender in Warrington will take a year off for 2024, we've still readying ourselves for some stellar festivals including Parklife and Manchester Pride. And even though not all of Manchester's upcoming festivals have announced full details yet, here's what we know so far on some of those events taking place.

Taking over Depot Mayfield, the Manchester Craft Beer Festival will feature 65 breweries exhibiting more than 500 beers and ciders, from locals like Cloudwater, Track, Marble, Northern Monk, Bundobust, Sureshot and Seven Brothers.

The huge event will also feature tastings and tours with the likes of Channel 4’s Mark Dredge and live Euros screening. For something to soak all the tastings, ramen joint Bone Daddies will be on hand making their Manchester debut, sitting alongside Almost Famous, Bundobust, MorMor and Vooddoo Rays.
