Electric Shuffle, the newest and only dedicated shuffleboard bar in Manchester, is giving away hundreds of prizes to people in the city centre this week – including bottomless brunch bundles, free games and much more.
Wait until you hear the big prize that’s up for grabs…
Officially launching to the public in Manchester city centre this Friday, this is Electric Shuffle’s first location in 0161 and just the second in the North, but it’s already made a name for itself down in London and over in the US.
Its arrival in town was first announced back in March but the brand has now revealed that they’re celebrating the grand opening with these exciting giveaways, and you still have time to get your hands on them.

To win, all you fine people need to do is simply keep your eyes out for them, as members of the newest venue will be posted along Deansgate, Market Street and Piccadilly Gardens.
Prizes on offer include bottomless brunch tickets, shuffleboard sampler vouchers, bottles of Prosecco and even a whopping £500 bar tab for one very lucky winner.

We’re so ready to spend all of Thursday pacing up and down the streets of Manchester.
While there are other places to play the popular bar activity in the area, Electric Shuffle is the only purpose-built shuffleboard place in Manchester and they’ve gained a glowing reputation at their various other locations. Trust us, we heard it straight from our friends over at The Hoot.
Delivering the most high-tech take on the social game you’ll find on the market, plus some great offerings when it comes to food, drink and entertainment, it’s looking like it’s going to be one of the best games and activity bars in Manchester.

In fact, given the fact that it’s the sister brand of the ever-popular Flight Club darts bar franchise, we’re already pretty confident it will be.

Peek inside the space-themed festive tipi bar that’s appeared in Manchester city centre

A gigantic new festive tipi has appeared in Manchester city centre, and this one’s out of this world.
Nova Star is an intergalactic, space-age tipi, filled with twinkling stars and shimmering galaxies.
The space-themed pop-up bar has appeared in Sadler’s Yard, right outside New Century.
Inside, you’ll be able to get your mitts on festive food specials from beloved Christmas Markets favourites Parmogeddon.
Their menu includes raclette-covered roast potatoes, with additional toppings like hot honey, brie, stuffing crumbs and gravy.
There’ll also be pigs in blanket hot dogs topped with cranberry and chilli ketchup and stuffing crumb, with an indulgent pot of gravy for dunking, plus profitteroles with a homemade brandy cream filling.
Nova Star’s bar will have a menu of shimmering cocktails and ice-cold beers too, with a full menu of Cosmos, including a Nebula Cosmo (which tastes a lot like a pina colada but is blue), a Cosmic Amore (close to a classic Cosmopolitan), and the Milkyway (a sweet and creamy concoction with hazelnut and vanilla).

Nova Star will be serving up their very own signature ‘Nova Staro’ pints, created in collaboration with Czech Pilsner specialists Staropramen in their first ever rebrand.
It’s a far cry from your typical Bavarian Christmas experience, swapping out holly and ivy for stars and shimmers.
Visitors will also be able to enjoy a line-up of festive entertainment.
Abby Moore, managing director at New Century, said: “Nova Star is all about celebrating Christmas at its most magical – and for us that means with all the dazzle of the space age.
“It’s a chance to escape the traditional and enjoy a spectacular atmosphere, stellar cocktails and incredible food.
“We can’t wait to welcome the people of Manchester to our space-age Christmas destination.”
Nova Star opens at Sadler’s Yard on Friday 22 November.
