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.

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.

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.

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.
