About Manchester

Manchester has a large, lively and energetic Gay and Lesbian community whos needs are catered for in an area which has come to be known as the Gay Village in Manchester. In recent years it has brought a new dynamism and vitality to a hitherto rather rundown area of the city, and its pavement cafés and bars have helped create in summertime a cosmopolitan and continental ambience, which attracts many people to its nightlife – Gay, Lesbian and Heteros!
The Gay Village probably represents the biggest concentration of gay interests, services and businesses in Europe.
