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.

Once again, King Street is showing every fixture throughout the duration of the tournament and you can find the full list of bookings HERE if you fancy giving their private Euros screenings a go.

The new restaurant loyalty scheme with amazing discounts and a massive prize up for grabs

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson Club IR is a new loyalty scheme available across Greater Manchester

A new loyalty scheme has launched at some of Greater Manchester’s top restaurants which promises to ditch the ‘tired points system’ in favour of much better discounts and offers. 

Club IR comes from Individual Restaurants, the group behind Piccolino, Riva Blu, and Restaurant Bar & Grill, with 32 restaurants across the UK. 

And with the new loyalty scheme, they’re offering members exclusive deals and experiences, such as a round of drinks on your birthday and special discounts running throughout the week.

For a limited time only, anyone who signs up to Club IR (which is completely free, by the way) will be in with a chance to win a £250 voucher to dine, along with a bottle of Champagne. 

Club IR discounts that are available at its beautiful, newly-refurbished Piccolino restaurant and across all venues include 15% off dining on Mondays and Tuesdays, 50% off all wine and champagne on Wednesdays, and sharing roasts on Sundays with a complimentary dessert for members. 

Newly-launched is Club Friday, where Club IR members can get two courses and a drink for £25 every week at Piccolino. 

Dishes on the exclusive menu include arancina and calamari fritti for your primi course, and a huge list of pizzas and pastas for secondi, like salami and nduja pizza or tagliatelle alla bolognese.

There are also steak and Malbec evenings for just £35 on Thursdays at Restaurant Bar & Grill locations (the nearest to Manchester is the stunning Opera in Chester).

Club IR actually has three tiers of membership available, from Club to Black to Diamond, with different benefits and money-can’t-buy experiences for each tier. 

There are VIP events aplenty, like parties, top sporting events, and once-in-a-lifetime trips to top culinary destinations.

Club IR’s bespoke approach has been created following research into customer appetites, which has found that we all much prefer a variety of offers and discounts instead of a points-based loyalty programme. 

It has an easy-to-use app that gets members easy access to offers, updates and perks. 

If you sign up for Club IR now, you’ll be entered into a competition to win a £250 voucher to dine at the restaurant, plus a bottle of champagne. 

To enter, sign up to Club IR through the app, and use code themanc24.

Manchester’s premier bowling alley where there’s way more to do than just bowl

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson

Most of us know that Tenpin is the best and biggest bowling alley in Manchester, with 14 lanes to show off your skills.

But did you also know how many other activities there are within this huge entertainment complex at Manchester Printworks?

This massive hub of fun opened back in 2020, promising to create a space where visitors can drink, eat and play all under one roof.

With its prime location near Manchester Victoria station and being right on the edge of the Northern Quarter, it’s become something of a local landmark. 

And inside, it’s not all just about the bowling – though with colour-changing LED lighting, huge scoring monitors, and interactive lanes, the bowling experience is pretty impressive. 

If you’re wanting to pack some more activities into your evening, here are five other things you can do at Tenpin in Printworks in Manchester.

Tenpin has several pool tables and table tennis tables too, and you don’t need to book these in advance – just rock up and bring your best game face.
