Things to do in Manchester

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

Manchester is a dynamic city that presents a fantastic cultural scene, excellent shopping, lively nightlife, and a great range of international cuisine.

Here's just a small sample of what you can look forward to in Manchester.

Market St is home to Debenham's, Primark and dozens of other high street shops. Here you can also find a couple of entrances to Manchester Arndale - the city's largest covered shopping mall.

King St is Manchester's main shopping street for international designer labels and high street brands.

The Northern Quarter is the area that makes Manchester different from any other city in Europe. Home to alternative record stores and independent retailers, this is the place to visit if you want to discover talented new designers and get a taste of the city's pop culture. Two of the highlights are Affleck's Palace and the Manchester Craft and Design Centre.

The highlight on Deansgate is Kendals, which has been around for more than 150 years and is still one of the city's most prestigious shopping destinations. Kendals offers a wide variety of items under one roof, from clothing and cosmetics to furniture and electrical goods.
