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.

A popular adults-only ‘after hours’ event is returning to Manchester later this month… and there’s some spooky surprises in store.
If you need an excuse to leave the little Mancs at home, or you just fancy releasing your inner child, then one of Manchester’s most visited museums might have just what you’re looking for, as the Science and Industry Museum has announced that its popular After Hours event especially for adults is returning for one night only at the end of the month.
The museum will become your playground once it’s closed for the day as you settle in for a unique evening of live music, giant interactive games, and spooky surprises for Halloween.

The Museum’s permanent galleries and displays will be open after hours, so you can get hands-on with science in Experiment, meet mighty machines in the Textiles Gallery, and discover Manchester‘s rich legacy of industrial innovations, creativity, and world-changing ideas in Revolution Manchester.
You’ll also get free access to the popular Horrible Science: Cosmic Chaos exhibition, which just opened earlier this year, and get to indulge your playful side in Power Up – with more than 150 consoles to choose from in the ultimate gaming extravaganza.
Especially for spooky season, you can look forward to some very special one-off events too, like stellar performances from Manchester drag royalty, Anna Phylactic, a cosmic cabaret with live vocals, and a monster mash-up soundtrack guaranteed to get you into the Halloween spirit.
There’ll also be a chance to meet Albert Slime-stein – a larger-than-life monster popping up the museum as part of Halloween in the City’s iconic Manchester Monsters trail.
And as this is an adults-only event, the museum’s events bar will be open on the night, serving up a wide range of wines, beers, and non-alcoholic drinks to wet your whistle while you’re looking around, with some delicious food to accompany too.
Museum After Hours is happening on Thursday 29 October from 7pm-10pm, with tickets setting you back £12 each or £6 for concessions.
The Good Clothes Show returns to Manchester next month for a weekend of ‘fashion, shopping, and creativity’

A weekend of ‘fashion, shopping, and creativity’ is returning to Manchester next month.
Taking over Manchester Central in early November, The Good Clothes Show is set to make a return to our city for one of the most fashionable weekends of the year, and will bring together dozens of brilliant independent brands, vintage and pre-loved treasures, hands-on workshops, catwalks, expert talks, and more all under one roof.
Visitors can expect an extensive shopping lineup of independent fashion brands, local artisans, contemporary labels, vintage specialists and pre-loved sellers.
At the heart of the weekend is a huge programme of opportunities to ‘learn, make, mend, and transform.’

You’ll get to try everything from darning, sashiko, and crochet, to creating makeup bags, transforming shirts, and upcycling football tops. Or if you fancy something completely different, there’ll be a chance to make a fascinator from scrap materials, create a statement necklace, or give tired old shoes a spectacular new lease of life.
No matter whether you’re a complete beginner or already quite handy with a sewing needle, organisers say The Good Clothes Show it’s all about learning new skills and leaving inspired.
And this year, TV star Leigh Francis is joining the fun as the show’s special guest for the weekend too.

There’s plenty happening beyond the shopping and workshops, as you can take a seat beside The Good Catwalk, get ideas and advice at The Style Stop, hear from fashion voices and changemakers, or simply stop for a glass of sparkling and compare shopping finds.
And it’s not just about the grown-ups either, as The Kids Club will encourage the next generation to discover design, textiles, and creativity through hands-on activities of their own.
