You'll just need to download the Printworks app to play the 'Love Lotto'.

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant - 7th February 2024

Printworks has launched a competition giving two lucky couples the chance to win the “ultimate” Valentine’s date night.

Fancy a game of ‘Love Lotto’? Well, it’s certainly the season for it.

With the international day of love right around the corner now, Manchester’s Printworks has decided to celebrate by launching an exciting Valentine’s-themed competition over on its app, where couples are encouraged to “give love a chance” in a bid to win the ultimate date night experience.

In case you hadn’t heard, Printworks launched a new app back in the summer, and it means customers can follow their favourite venues within the landmark entertainment complex to keep up-to-date with all the latest news and events, as well as take advantage of loads of offers, enter competitions, and so much more.

Available now as a free download on both the App Store and Google Store, the app features its own selection of exclusive discounts.

Not only that, but it also gives members the opportunity to collect loyalty points when they visit the city centre venue, as well as get monthly rewards and freebies, alongside exclusive VIP access to events and the chance to win prizes.

Oh, and this month, you’ll also get to play the ‘Love Lotto’ too.

With the competition now live, couples can claim their ‘Love Lotto’ tickets via the rewards scheme on the app, and then they’ll immediately be entered into a draw to win one of two Valentine’s date night bundles – which include a £50 gift card to spend on a romantic meal at a Printworks restaurant of choice, a £40 gift card for a fun activity at one of the leisure venues, and two cinema tickets for Vue.

The romantic prizes don’t end their either, as the two winning couples will also receive gift bags filled with pamper items, delicious Valentine’s chocolates, and all sorts of other luxurious treats.

To enter the competition, you’ll just need to download the Printworks App and create a profile, then head over to the rewards section and redeem a ‘Love Lotto’ ticket reward.

Each redeemed reward equates to one ticket for the ‘Love Lotto’, so the more tickets you redeem, the more likely you are to win.

Tickets are just 10 points to claim, and can be redeemed up to Sunday 11 February.

The winners will be notified via email on Monday 12 February – with all the instructions for prize collection from Manchester’s Printworks provided.

Six By Nico launches tasting menu inspired by Christmas dinner

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson Six By Nico launches tasting menu inspired by Christmas dinner

Everyone’s favourite affordable tasting menu restaurant, Six By Nico, has announced its first-ever festive Sunday roast menu. 

The beloved restaurant group, which now has two locations in Manchester, is famed for serving creative and interesting tasting menus, but at a much more accessible price than other fine dining establishments – just £44 a head. 

Then you can add on extra snacks, perfectly-paired wine flights, and even matching cocktails. 

At Six By Nico, the inspiration is always changing, whether the menus bring a sense of nostalgia, memories of a much-loved book or film, or whisk you away across the globe with dishes inspired by another country’s cuisine. 

Previous menus have included The Chippy Tea, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. 

Six By Nico switches up its six-course tasting menus every six weeks, keeping customers coming back time and time again for the next adventurous experience. 

And one of the best things is the flexibility that these tasting menus have, catering for vegans, veggies, pescatarians and more. You can even mix and match courses across tasting menus to suit your mood and dietary requirements.

The next menu that has had us clicking ‘book’ at the speed of light is Six By Nico’s first-ever Festive Sunday Roast menu, with six courses and a cocktail pairing. 

The new Six By Nico tasting menu features all the flavours of Christmas Day, presented in creative and exciting ways. 

For example, your evening will begin with ‘Pigs in Blankets’ (pork pressé, Sauerkraut, burnt onion and grain mustard), as well as a Brussels Sprouts-inspired course that used barbecue hispi cabbage, aged ewe’s cheese, pickled mushrooms and black garlic emulsion. 

For the main event it’s the Three Bird Roast – duck, chicken and turkey ballotine, liver parfait, honey glazed carrot and Madeira jus.

And you’d be remiss not to add the Ultimate Yorkshire Pudding on as an extra, made with pork and sage stuffing and sauce charcuterie.

Course five is Baked Brie De Meaux, homemade mince pie and Peckhams pear, then to finish Six By Nico has Chocolate Profiteroles, Tahitian vanilla Choux au Craquelin, chocolate Cremeux, buttermilk sorbet and dulce de leche.  

In a second brand-first, Six by Nico Manchester has created a perfectly matched cocktail pairing to accompany the six-course tasting menu (£40pp) which includes six cocktails including an Apple and Dill Martini. 

It’s just another example of the way Six By Nico keeps pushing the game forward. 

Andrew Temple, Chief Creative Officer, spoke of the menu’s festive twist: “The response to our Sunday Roast menu has been incredible, and we wanted to capture that excitement in a way that complements the holiday season.

“Extending the Sunday Roast with a festive version not only celebrates the British classic but adds a layer of excitement in the build up to the Festive season. 

“We’re looking forward to sharing this seasonal reimagining with our guests, bringing them both the comfort and joy of the festive period.”

The Festive Sunday Roast is £44 per person, with an additional wine pairing available for £30, or a matched cocktail pairing for £40. It’s available to book every Sunday from 24 November until 5 January HERE.

While the yurts can be booked for groups up to 152 people, you can also just enjoy the apres-ski atmosphere in much smaller groups, with tables available for six people too. 

On arrival at the festive Yurt Village you’ll be greeted with a welcome drink before tucking into an Alpine-themed three-course meal by The Hog and Apple. 

And to get the party started there’s a full cocktail bar, plus live music with a DJ and saxophonist. 

You’ll be able to document your festive celebration in a photobooth with an Alpine themed backdrop, as well as a 360 degree videobooth. 

Billed by previous customers as ‘the best night of the year’, YurtBar bookings are now open for minimum tables of six.
