Help with Manchester weekend

[Brightwell’s left peg]

Let me start by saying I'm Manc born and raised, but other than fleeting visits I've been away from Manchester for nearly 20 years.

Anyway, I'm bringing a few Canadians (young and in 40's) with me to the Derby/a long weekend, who've either never been to UK or never to Manchester, and want to show them the best of Manchester and area. I'm thinking both days out (with 12 year old boys) and nights out without.

Without input id be thinking along lines of Comedy Store (not old trafford), go karting, northern quarter.

Where would you take people who've never been before in order to entertain/impress?

Chorlton street toilets

Cloud 26 may be a good start, you could point out landmarks, inc Chorlton St bogs from there...

 

[york away to this!]

Alternatively, try Cloud 23 in the Beetham tower - which has great views up canal street and almost as far as the lavatories at Chorlton Street.

You can also see many sites of the famous canal nudger's exploits, the barm factory and even way out of manchester all the way to the swamp.

That's handy as we're staying at the Hilton. I assume the chorlton St lavs are on the George Michael tour?

Get them on the hot punch round the markets, job done.

Can't beat the smell of fresh bread at the fine ladies bakery near etihad stadium.
Forget the footy, I only go to smell that :D
Or if you just cross the street there on grimshaw lane you'll smell the lovely Princes tuna packing factory ... Eeeeew

I would recommend paying the additional three pounds to upgrade to the Andrew Ridgeley experience. Well worth the money.

If you would like to PM me your Visa card number, the three digit code on the back and your mother's maiden name I will gladly pre-book you some tickets...

Derby day is in March. I'm assuming Christmas markets are done by then?

Sounds great. PM isn't working for some reason. I'll just stick the details on here of that works?
