Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Gatley

"This is truly an amazing building and its history also tells the history of Manchester. Not officially a museum, The Royal Exchange is definitely worth exploring. You only need to step into the great entrance hall to understand why you should pop in."

"Yes, Buxton has one of its own, designed by Frank Matcham no less, with a busy and varied programme. Next week there’ll be performances of The Tiger Who Came to Tea, hot from the West End."

"Manchester Opera House is the Palace Theatre’s little sister. It’s located on Quay Street, near Spinningfields. It is smaller than the Palace theatre however, there are still some amazing productions to see here."

"Contact Theatre will be heading out across Manchester this summer for a series of outdoor performances. Contact is an Oxford Road theatre and performing arts venue creating and producing its own shows, as well as hosting tours from the world’s best theatre companies.

"The first public events will return to the Stoller Hall from June 7. Shows will be socially-distanced with reduced capacities initially, but there are hopes that it will be back to near-full capacity by September. See more and book tickets at stollerhall.com/whats-on."

"The Stoller Hall is situated in the heart of Manchester and offers a personal live music experience that puts you closer to the music. The concert hall delivers a programme including classical, folk and jazz music, as well as spoken word and comedy."

"Another one that you'll have to exercise patience for is the RNCM (Royal Northern College of Music), which is - understandably - prioritising the return of students and tutors. You can see the latest updates at www.rncm.ac.uk."

"The Royal Northern College of Music is an internationally acclaimed conservatoire, as well as an eclectic performance venue delivering a diverse programme of music and opera performances."

"Only complaint is that I have to drive 20mins each way and the pizza gets cold by the time I get home. 14/04/2021: Without doubt the best Pizza for miles around..... Absolutely fantastic....."

"Travel back in time to the industrial revolution at the Quarry Bank Mill. Oozing with heritage, you can experience the ‘sounds and smells’ of steam and water-powered engines, explore the cotton mill to learn about spinning, weaving, the production of material, and the history of the textile industry, tour the Apprentice House for a glimpse into the lives of pauper children, stroll the beautiful gardens, or walk the Styal Estate, filled with woodlands and streams. Interactive, engaging, and educational, the museum exhibits and friendly and knowledgeable staff make Quarry Bank Mill a great day out for all ages."

"If your kids love football then you can’t miss the National football museum. Throughout the museum, there are interactive objects, games and displays that will appeal to all ages. Their current activities and events programme is temporarily on hold but you’ll still find trails to take part in during your visit or you can download somr trails here before your visit."

"It not only includes all the expected exhibits but also boasts interactive attractions to keep the whole family entertained, even the partner that is not that much of a fan!. To top it off, the museum is located inside one of Manchester’s newest and most iconic buildings – The Urbis. Interactive, passionate and full of history, just like the beautiful game itself."

"In 2001, the National Football Museum was transferred from Preston to Manchester. The museum has over 140,000 football artefacts such as boots, programmes, paintings and balls. To visit the primary exhibition, you will not pay anything."

"While idling in the Pavilion Gardens you could call in at this gallery in the main building next to the tourist information desk. The Gallery in the Gardens is a platform for painting and arts and crafts by more than 40 local artists and craftspeople. Their works are for sale and include textiles, ceramics, paintings, calligraphy, embroidery, glass, linocuts, etchings, woodcarvings and prints."

"Since you’ll find yourself within The Pavilion Gardens, you might want to pay The Gallery in the Gardens a visit. It’s an art gallery featuring paintings, ceramics, and other crafts by local artists. Support the local artists’ high-quality masterpieces by making a purchase or two if you can."

"A friendly café, popular with the locals, The Koffee Pot serves typical English breakfasts, complete with a traditional English tea and the all important toast. With their filling English fry ups topping the list of popular dishes, The Koffee Pot also serves a Scottish breakfast, Irish breakfast, and vegetarian breakfast to add a bit of variety, as well as a range of hot drinks and fresh fruit juices. For those who seek an alternative to the full fry up, The Koffee Pot also has weekly specials, including buttermilk pancakes, and eggs on toast."

"Inside may be snug and cosy with hearty American-diner inspired food, but it’s the mural that graces the outside of the Koffee Pot that is just begging to be photographed. Be respectful, as this beautiful piece of street art is a memorial to the victims of the terrorist attack at the Ariana Grande concert, but it’s also a reminder of Manchester’s sense of community, demonstrated through the worker bee emblem. Koffee Pot, 84-86 Oldham St, Manchester, UK"

"Impossible to miss thanks to the bright orange sign, Koffee Pot has a slight grunge feel to it and a legion of dedicated fans. Touring musicians flock here for their breakfasts; the bacon butties are legendry in Manchester and cost a mere £2!. Looking like it is stuck in the 1960’s with graffiti on the walls, leather seats, and squeezy sauces, many people peer in and walk past, onto somewhere a little more ‘hip’ but this is a big mistake!"
