The Oast House

The famous Oast House tipi – arguably one of the most festive aspects of Manchester every year – is officially open in time for the Christmas period.

Billed as a ‘winter escape in the heart of Spinningfields’, the Curious Tipi proves to be a massive hit each year, with thousands of people descending upon the site to enjoy a steaming mug of mulled wine next to an open fireplace – you know, those proper Christmas vibes.

And this year will fare no differently; after sadly being closed for the most part of the festive season last year, the tipi is back and there’s a ton of exciting stuff lined up.

To celebrate its tenth birthday, The Oast House has been throwing a number of parties, with the next being ‘Oastoberfest’ this Friday October 15th, the pub’s take on Oktoberfest with Back Chat Brass, tons of bratwurst and, of course, tankards upon tankards of its signature lager, Budvar.

There will be a special ‘Hanging Kebabs Showcase’ the week after on October 21st and, finally, a party celebrating both old and new Oast House staff members on October 29th.

The Oast House’s Matt Lewty said: “We’re super excited to bring back Manchester’s original – and most loved – Tipi. I’m looking forward to seeing old faces from days gone by for The Oast House staff celebration on October 29th.

“If you’ve ever done a shift behind the bar, hung a kebab, greeted guests, played the stage or ran around the floor helping customers, we’d love to see you celebrating ten incredible years.”

Throughout the winter there will also be a number of Christmassy events taking place, including the iconic Oast House cinema nights, their annual wreath making classes and, of course, the famous hanging kebabs. 

The Curious Tipi will also be available to hire out for functions and staff dos throughout the festive period.

The Oast House is open from 12pm daily and can be found at The Avenue Courtyard, M3 3AY. For more information, head over to The Oast House website or follow the official Instagram page.

Manchester’s biggest night of Country and Western floor fillers is happening this week.

Red Solo Club is bringing its successful club night to Cooper Hall on Saturday, June 10th — yeehaw!

Put on your best cowboy hat and boots, and get ready for a great night of dancing as country lovers can expect to hear some absolute contemporary bangers by the likes of Luke Combs, Taylor Swift and Shania Twain.

And for those who love to a little Hillbilly Rock, there will also be occasional interludes of traditional country singalongs from Kenny Rogers, Alan Jackson, Jimmy Buffett and more.

Since its first night sell-out in November 2022, Red Solo Club has grown to become a successful bi-monthly event in Manchester, and as of July, it will be coming to Glasgow too.

Taking its name from Toby Keith’s country hit Red Solo Cup, Red Solo Club was created by friends Ste Brown and James Macdonald.

They said: “We were both introduced to modern country music while driving around America together about 15 years ago. You can’t go far over there without hearing some country music, and our interest in it has grown and grown since then.”

The pair also present The Dive Bar on LCRUK — an online country radio station setup during lockdown.

They continued: “We’d play all this music on our show and go to gigs but there was nowhere in the area that would play these songs late into the night, so we thought… why not do it ourselves?

“The genre is becoming really popular in the UK, and with young people too. I think some people maybe assume it’s just line dancing, stetsons and Achy Breaky Heart but give it a listen and realise there’s some great rock and pop songs — just with a little southern American twist.”

Red Solo Club is Manchester’s biggest country party, playing five hours of the best country music at Cooper Hall, Northern Quarter, on Saturday June 10th 9pm to 2am.

Ticket prices start from £5 and can be purchased by clicking HERE. Advanced tickets are available for £6, or £7 for anybody wishing to pay on the door.

Pop star P!NK is set to kick-off her world tour starting in Bolton next week.

The 43-year-old superstar will embark on her Summer Carnival World Tour next week at the University of Bolton Stadium on Wednesday and Thursday, June 7th and 8th.

The popular American singer-songwriter will take to the stage — in her upcoming eighth concert tour — for the two days as she performs some of her well-known hits and best loved tracks, including songs from her latest album, Trustfall.

The six-pack sporting musician, whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore Hart, posted an image of herself suspended in the air, while practising some kind of aerial arts, on Instagram last week to give fans a taste of what’s to come. 

Alongside the image she wrote: “Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.”

The quote was taken from the 19th-century American philosopher and poet Henry Thoreau. One excited fan wrote: “Can’t wait to see u in Berlin!! I’m flying from Barcelona.”

Another one-upped them and said: “Can’t wait to see her in Germany!!! flying from NY to Barcelona then to Germany!!” A third fan added: “Can’t wait to see you in July…this will be so fantastic.”

The concerts will be held in the open air, with doors opening from 4.30pm and music due to start at 5.30pm – 11pm on both days.

P!NK will be supported by special guests at the concerts including Kidcutup, Gayle and The Script.

The council has issued advice for parking and traffic management with extensive traffic restrictions in place due to concertgoers travelling by different forms of transport such as car, coaches, public transport, taxis and also by foot.

Tickets for the events can be purchased by clicking HERE.
