Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant - 28th February 2022

You can officially “spice up your life” once again next month, as Spice Girls-themed karaoke bottomless brunches are returning to Manchester city centre.

They were the sell-out successes of last year, as people got together to sing their hearts out and celebrate being reunited after the COVID-19 pandemic kept us all apart for so long, and now, The Liquor & Brunch Squad is bringing its Karaoke Brunch series back to Manchester for 2022, with the first event only a few weeks away.

This exclusive Spice Girls-themed brunch is perfect for any 90s pop music fan who fancies singing along to the iconic girl band’s greatest hits, all while sipping on a cocktail.

It’ll be coming to a secret city centre location, that’s soon-to-be-announced.

While the “singing sessions” and the “bottomless beverages of dreams” are sure to be the main event throughout the 90-minutes, according to the event description, you’re also encouraged to come dressed for the part to be in with a chance of bagging yourself some exciting prizes in the costume competition.

There’ll also be a ‘Quiz of all Quizzes’ on all-things Spice Girls too, with plenty of prizes up for grabs throughout the event.

Along with an inclusive menu of grilled brunches, avocado toast, and pancakes – with options available for vegetarians, vegans and those following a gluten-free diet – this is also a bottomless brunch.

This means you can sip on a tipple or two, from Aperol Spritz and Prosecco, to Bloody Marys, a range of beers and so much more, all while you sing-along to your heart’s content.

Alternatively, you can skip the booze and just stick to the brunch by itself if you wish.

Strawberry lemonade, cucumber and apple coolers, tropical fizz, standard soft drinks, and a range of 0% alcohol options are just some of the drinks on offer in the ‘Non Alcoholic’ bottomless brunch.

The first Spice Girls Karaoke Brunch of 2022 is coming to Manchester on Sunday 3 April, with tickets ranging from £37 – £47.10 per person, depending on drink choices.

Manchester’s popular pop-up cafe full of hundreds of sausage dogs is back this bank holiday

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant Dachshund Pup Up Cafe

Manchester’s popular pop-up cafe full of hundreds of sausage dogs is making a big return this bank holiday.

Are you a big dachshund fan? Love seeing lots of little sausage dogs in the same place? Looking for your little pup to make some sausage friends? Don’t even have a sausage dog but want to join in on the fun anyway? Well you’re in luck, as the Dachshund Pup Up Cafe is back in our city for its second time this year… and what better day than bank holiday Monday.

Having already proved to be a smash-hit success in the years it’s visited Manchester since 2018, the dachshund pop up cafe – or we should say ‘pup up cafe’ – will be filling another popular city centre venue with so many sausage dogs.

Organisers are expecting more than 250 dachshunds to join in on the fun this time around, and there’s loads for them to look forward to.

Sausage dogs and their owners are all invited to descend on Revolution Parsonage Gardens in the city centre from 10am, with several other timed sessions throughout the day to book onto – as organisers Pup Up Cafe have managed to secure the whole venue the dogs to roam free and enjoy some wholesome fun in a safe space.

Whether you own a sausage dog yourself or you’re simply just a dachshund fan, you’ll get the chance to mingle with many furry little friends, take part in a range of activities, and stock up on dachshund-related goodies.

The pups themselves will get to enjoy unlimited dog treats and free puppuccinos, and play to their heart’s content with other sausages.

It sounds like it’s going to be a jam-packed day to remember, so luckily, there’ll be plenty of photo opportunities throughout.

The Dachshund Pup Up Cafe will arrive in Manchester on Monday 26 May from 10am-3:30pm, with different morning and afternoon sessions during the day, and numbers limited to 50 sausage dogs allowed per session.

Fancy ‘a sausage mad day’ then? Tickets will set you back £10 if you’re a sausage dog owner, and £15 if you’re just a dachshund fan who’s keen to go along for the fun anyway, and you can get yourself some tickets here.

Don’t have a sausage dog, but do have another four-legged furry friend instead? Not to worry, as Pup Up Cafe has a session open to all friendly dogs on the day too, which you can get tickets for here.

And if you miss out on Manchester, there’s also events in Nottingham and Southampton this bank holiday too.

RADAR Festival returns to Manchester with huge lineup this summer and you can still get tickets

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant RADAR Festival

One of Manchester’s best festivals for discovering new genre-busting music talent is back this summer, and you can still get tickets.

The award-winning RADAR Festival is set to return to one of the city’s best-loved indoor venues this July, and it’ll be bringing a ‘breathtaking’ selection of modern and progressive music to the stage – with the full lineup announced, including headlining acts Carpenter Brut, Bob Vylan, and UNDERØATH, as well as performances by Zeal & Ardor, Vukovi, Normandie, and so many more.

If you’re unfamiliar with RADAR Festival, it’s a musical celebration that launched back in 2019 but moved to Manchester in 2023, and has been calling our city its home ever since.

The festival is all about pushing boundaries and introducing fresh new music genres to its stages.

With its mixture of international talent and confirmed homegrown success, RADAR Festival – which is taking over O2 Victoria Warehouse when it arrives in the city this summer – has already positioned itself as a champion of forward-thinking, guitar-led progressive music.

But that’s not all what it’s about.

Beyond the music, the event features a daily series of intimate masterclasses, live podcast recordings, and loads more.

Organisers say RADAR is ‘more than just a music festival’, as it offers attendees a unique experience that merges the festival’s mutual love of contemporary progressive music, gaming, and musical instruments, all in one place.

So as well as getting to the chance to discover what could potentially be your next favourite music artist, you’ll also have the opportunity to play some of the finest instruments by cutting-edge brands and independent builders alike, compete head-to-head in some of the latest game releases on state-of-the-art gaming PCs, indulge your addiction to painting miniatures, and even participate in a screaming competition… if you feel like it.

Each day of the festival will continue long into the night too, as there’s also the addition of incredible afterparty acts on each of the three nights of the event.

With rave reviews from both the press and attendees in the years gone by, it definitely sounds like this year’s RADAR Festival is shaping up to be a must-attend event for music lovers seeking unique and innovative sounds, and luckily there’s still tickets available.

RADAR Festival will return to Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse from Friday 4 – Sunday 6 July 2025, and tickets are now on sale – with both day tickets, and weekend-long ‘Tier 3’ tickets with 10% discounts available to get your hands on.

Also demonstrating its commitment to new bands, RADAR will continue to donate a portion of ticket sales proceeds to Music Venue Trust and Save Our Scene’s Liveline Fund, in order to support grassroots music venues across the UK.
