One of Manchester’s most luxurious hotels is hosting private screenings for the Euros

Sit back and watch the game in style.

Danny Jones Danny Jones - 13th June 2024

King Street Townhouse is getting wrapped up in football fever ahead of this year’s Euros and is offering one of the most luxurious and laid-back ways to watch the game in Manchester.

The luxury hotel, spa and gym has always been known for having a surprise or two up its sleeve and with Euro 2024 rapidly approaching, they’re turning one of the worst-kept secrets into the perfect opportunity for football fans.

King Street‘s ‘secret’ cinema has been delighting Manchester locals and out-of-towners for ages now, whether it be with cosy screenings of classic Christmas films or putting on a beloved rom-com for Valentine’s Day, but now they’re turning their exclusive viewing room into a private fan zone.

Open to fans of any nation competing at this year’s European Championships, the boutique hotel is offering you the chance to bring all your friends and family not just under one roof for the game but to sit back and watch the matches in arguably the comfiest seats you’ll find anywhere in the city centre.

Available for booking up to 20 people, their lavish personal cinema is set to see the comfort of your front room collide with the energy of your favourite sports bar, only this place happens to be decked out in the most lavish furnishings you can imagine.

From plump, sinking sofas with soft curtains and mood lighting you can adjust depending on the vibe, to the big screen projector, ice-cold buckets of beer and gourmet menu offerings that you can have brought straight to your seat, this is a real all-in-one experience for you and yours.

Food-wise, you can grab one of their signature King Street Townhouse Cheeseburgers with fries of a classic Pepperoni Pizza, with veggie and vegan alternatives also on offer. For a seat to watch the game with a beer is only £15 per person and to upgrade to a beer bucket of four is £35.

Or, you can always spring for both at just £45pp, with all food and drink served at half-time to make sure you don’t miss a second of the action – and you can of course order extras on the day too.

Listen, watching the game in a rowdy pub full of people you don’t know isn’t for everyone but that doesn’t mean you have to stick with staying at home and squeezing you and yours around one normal-sized telly.

King Street Townhouse has the perfect alternative with its private screening room, which also happens to be one of the most exclusive, intimate and relaxing ways to enjoy the Euros anywhere in Manchester this summer.

And if you’re an England fan, lord knows we’re going to need to stay relaxed.

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson Cheshire Oaks is hosting a FREE exclusive gig this summer to celebrate its 30th anniversary

Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet will be celebrating its 30th anniversary with a huge, free concert that’ll hark back to the 2000s. 

The hugely popular shopping destination, where visitors can save big on luxury brands, will be inviting customers to a totally free summer gig on a stage built on site. 

It’s part of the wider 30th anniversary celebrations, and will include a headline performance from a top-secret 2000s music act.

All they’ve revealed about the headliner so far is that they have a catalogue of number one singles and beloved hits… 

But also on the line-up that has been confirmed is a DJ set from Take That legend Howard Donald, and a hosting slot from Hits Radio DJ Kimberly Wyatt. 

There are still supporting acts to be announced in due course, with Cheshire Oaks promising ‘high energy and big personality’.

Taking place in the evening of Friday 6 June, the Cheshire Oaks 30th anniversary party will be free to shoppers and visitors.

And a select group of VIPs from the local community will have the opportunity to meet the mystery headliner in person.

Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet will be giving back to its local charity partners, including The Hospice of The Good Shepherd, Koala, Flynns Port in the Storm and Claire House amongst others, as well as its staff and their families, with exclusive golden circle access for the best seats in the house. 

The anniversary gig is part of the shopping village’s ongoing celebration of its three-decade-long history.  

Earlier this year, Cheshire Oaks unveiled its 2025 Style Report, revealing that 63% of Brits now prefer shopping in person rather than online, as well as the resurgence of nostalgic fashion trends from the 90s, from baggy trousers to full denim looks.

It’s the UK’s largest designer outlet, with more than 400,000 sq ft of retail space and more than 165 brands.

Kenny Murray, general manager at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet, said: “This anniversary is a moment to celebrate the rich history and vibrant future of Cheshire Oaks. We have evolved continuously over the last three decades, and now it’s time to celebrate in true style.

“Over our 30 years we’ve built a real sense of community that makes this centre special and we want to celebrate this milestone with the local area and people so close to our heart.

“This summer’s music event, crowned by a secret headline act, promises to be a truly special experience, and a way that we can give back to the loyal customers who have trusted us to bring them the latest fashion trends since the 90s, we can’t wait to enjoy it with them.”

The local property developers helping Mancs buy a home without the large deposit

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant

A North West developer that specialises in creating Shared Ownership homes currently has eight new developments under construction across Manchester.

Getting your foot on the property ladder or taking the next step to owning a bigger home can be one of the most challenging things to do and is often not financially viable for a lot of people – and this is where Gecko Homes‘ unique Shared Ownership scheme comes in.

The developer is enabling first time buyers and other qualifying homebuyers to purchase shares in its homes instead.

With deposits from as little as £2,438, the scheme means residents can buy shares ranging from 10% all the way up to 75% instead and then pay rent on the rest, with the option to increase the share percentage at later dates, all the way up to outright ownership.

As mentioned, the company is currently working on eight new developments across Manchester in some of the city’s most sought-after suburbs, and prospective buyers can now register their interest.

One of the most popular developments currently underway is ‘Tatton Place’ in Sale – which is a redevelopment of a historic Masonic Hall and police station into 31 homes, including two and three-bedroom houses, one and two-bedroom apartments, and several stunning duplexes, all with access to both private and communal gardens.

Another key development is ‘Emerald Way’ over in the popular Manchester suburban town of Chorlton, where prices start from £60,625 for a 25% share, meaning a buyer would only need a deposit of £3,031.

Over in West Didsbury is one of largest ongoing developments called ‘Two Didsbury Point’, which is a £20 million scheme of 76 affordable homes across two connected eight and five-storey blocks – 46 of those being for shared ownership – on the site of the former Withington Hospital, with an outdoor communal terrace and green spaces for residents to enjoy.

Another one of the developments currently in the works that prospective buyers can now register their interest for is ‘Boundary View’, which lies in the thriving Manchester community of Old Trafford.

“Our Shared Ownership model has transformed people’s lives by giving them a way onto the property ladder in a modern, stylish, and high-quality home that they can afford to live in,” explained Christina Tattersall, who is the Head of Sales at Gecko Homes.

“All of our latest developments are already generating high levels of interest from local people who want to live in some of Manchester’s most popular and vibrant suburbs that all benefit from great amenities and regular transport links.

“Each development will be finished to a very high specification, with contemporary kitchens and bathrooms, as well as luxury floorings and quality fixtures and fittings throughout.”

Residents interested in any of these developments are asked to visit Gecko Homes’ website here to find out more and register their details now.
