Castlefield Bowl Concerts 2027

The best place to be in Manchester especially when the sun is shining the wharf barca and Dukes 92 such lovely places

A little hidden gem,tucked away in the Castlefield area of Manchester, a garden in the sky,making use of an old unused railway bridge. Our visit was on a typical Manchester day,but come the summer when in full bloom,it'll be a different place again.

Really cool venue! I came for the final night of Laughterama and despite the dreadful weather forecast, it was an amazing night. The generous selection of streetfood stalls and bars makes it worth arriving early, although they stayed open for the intervals so there's no risk of missing out. Our seats were very close to the stage, and the sound and lighting was consistently appropriate through the transition from evening into night. There were loads of toilets which matters at large events like this! The staff were friendly and did a good job keeping queue times short, and the end of the show was well organised to prevent a stampede. The show itself was great, with some really big names, and I'm already looking forward to seeing who's on the lineup next year - not to mention catching a Sounds of the City gig here! A really unique venue (or as David O'Doherty described it: 'my first gig in a penguin enclosure')

Went for the fireworks on new year. The fireworks were nice, and the crowd was decent.

Incredible outdoor venue, Industrial, architectural and well surrounded. It's art. The street food and bars were great and the sound was incredible. Try to get there early to get some cover from the sun and/or rain. Go here if you want to see your favourite bands somewhere a little different. Manchester is an incredible city and venues like this are absolutely what makes it so 👌
