One of Manchester’s most popular nightlife venues is transforming itself every month for a new cabaret show.
Stepping inside Peaky Blinders Manchester may always feel like taking a trip back in time , but for one-night only every month throughout 2022, the Peter Street venue is inviting you to “peak your curiosity” as it transforms into its very-own speakeasy for a cabaret event featuring some of the best performers in the UK & Europe.
Peaky’s Speakeasy brings together a diverse lineup of performance artists from the world of Burlesque, Circus, Drag, and many more.
Each event features a lineup curated by Miss Lei-Lei.
According to the event description on the Peaky Blinders Manchester website, jazz quintet The Bourbon Street Band will provide the soundtrack to the new monthly show to take you into the night and “dance the blues away”.

For £45 each, you can grab ‘Gala Tickets’, which gets you a table on the premium balcony floor with a full view of the band, but restricted view of cabaret show, and includes a three-course meal, a glass of prosecco on arrival, and the benefit from table and quick bar service, while £55 gets you a ‘Premium Table’ with the same three-course meal, glass of prosecco on arrival, and service, but with a table on the balcony that has a clear view of the stage and show.
If you’re keen to really get the full Peaky’s Speakeasy experience, then you can splash out on a ‘Premium Drinks Table’, which gets you a table on the ground floor of the venue with a full view of the stage and all the performances, and will set you back £450.

Included in this ticket is the ‘The Tommy Shelby Package’ of drinks, which has a range of spirits, shot paddles, prosecco, and popular beers.
Peaky’s Speakeasy will take over the Manchester venue on selected dates throughout the year, with “no secret codes to get in” and the lineup of performances set to begin at 9:30pm and run until late in the night.
The next event is happening this Friday 6 May, and while tickets are selling fast, there’s still time to get your hands on them.

Spooktacular Halloween trail to return to National Trust site Quarry Bank
Daisy Jackson
A Halloween trail is set to return to Quarry Bank Mill this autumn for one of the region’s most hauntingly beautiful seasonal events.
The National Trust site is a former working mill and one of the country’s finest industrial buildings – but as night falls and the shadows lengthen, a haunting will begin…
This year’s Halloween at Quarry Bank will again feature spooky light installations, a mesmerising laser garden, and a thrilling fire show, as well as live performances and seasonal food and drink.
Returning for a second year, Halloween at Quarry Bank will be an unforgettable experience for all ages.
Fog will swirl through the paths around the grounds, as glowing demon eyes watch over passers-by and giant skeletons loom over twisted trees.
If you’re brave enough, the trail then heads inside the mill itself, where creaking and clanking sounds of its industrial past hint at something a little more haunted.

As you wander the trail, you’ll pass installations like glowing fire spheres and catacombs echoing with whispers from the past, plus plenty more surprises waiting in the shadows.
Then you can refuel with ‘bewitched burgers and freaky fries’, plus hot toddys and decadent hot chocolates.
You can even toast a marshmallow over an open fire.
Halloween at Quarry Bank is designed for families, couples, and groups of friends alike, and attracts visitors from all over Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Merseyside and Lancashire.
Entry to the trail is on a timed slot system – tickets are on sale now HERE.
Inside the brand-new rental houses at Bolton’s landmark £35m development, Deansgate Gardens
Daisy Jackson
The first residents are in, and the launch of Deansgate Gardens – a landmark £35m development in Bolton town centre – is live.
This impressive new development has brought 167 high-quality rental homes to Bolton, creating a residential neighbourhood that features rooftop terraces, gardens, and stunning communal spaces.
The homes on Deansgate, Bolton have been built specifically for renters, with spacious layouts in an ideal location just a two-minute walk from Bolton Town Hall and a short commute to Manchester.
And, unusually for new rental developments, it’s not all about apartments here (though there are beautiful one- and two-bedroom apartments with rooftop gardens available).
It’s also somewhere you can rent two-bedroom townhouses, and have your very own yard.
Every home is built with energy efficiency in mind, with heat pumps and enhanced insulation, plus rooftop solar panels on selected homes, keeping those pesky bills down.
This pet-friendly development comes from developer Placefirst, and is a key moment in the wider £1bn regeneration masterplan for Bolton.

Deansgate Gardens is located just opposite the former Beales department store, connected by the train station, bus interchange, and town centre within walking distance.
These stylish new homes are built around a central square and communal courtyards. The result? Somewhere residents can relax, socialise, and connect.
There’s even a dedicated Resident Service Manager and 24/7 maintenance support for peace of mind.
And just a short walk away you’ll find parks like Queen’s Park, plus beautiful routes along the River Croal.
