An Italian Aperol beach bar is popping-up in Spinningfields this summer

Aperol is bringing its very own Italian pop-up beach bar to the heart of Manchester city centre next month.

Now that so many of us have resigned ourselves to staycations this year, The Aperol Spritz & Spiaggia bar at The Oast House is aiming to transport city visitors from the hustle and bustle of Manchester to the serenity of the Mediterranean coast.

Celebrating the summer sun in true Italian style, the sandy setting features an outdoor beach bar that includes a jet ski and Fiat 500s – and visitors are invited to chill out in the relaxing cabana-style seating or take a seat at the bar swings. 

The Aperol Spritz & Spiaggia will of course serve Aperol Spritz alongside some light bites.

On top of that, to kick-off the Aperitivo Hour every day, DJs will take centre stage to guarantee good vibes and beach party tunes.

“At a time when not many of us are able to enjoy an overseas getaway, we wanted to bring all the beauty and joyful vibes of the Italian beach scene to the UK,” said Loris Contro, Brand Ambassador at Aperol UK.

Danny Leach – General Manager of The Oast House – added: “We are so excited to bring a slice of Italy to the heart of Manchester [as] with so many of us missing out on holidays abroad yet again this summer, we’re delighted we can bring the beach bar vibes closer to home.”

The Aperol Spritz & Spiaggia will take over The Oast House from Thursday 5 – Sunday 15 August.

While walk-ins will be accepted, advanced booking is advised.
