A unique and family-friendly festival at Chetham’s in Manchester – featuring live music, food, drink and medieval entertainment, will celebrate the 600th anniversary of Manchester’s oldest buildings.
Chetham’s stunning medieval buildings date back to 1421. It’s where the history of modern Manchester begins. Now, a two-day festival will celebrate the city’s history, and the incredible story of Chetham’s.
Visit the historic courtyard at Chetham’s for storytelling, falconry, food and drink and the chance to test yourself at some competitive medieval games. Live music from Manchester Baroque and Chetham’s Manchester Cathedral Choristers will set the mood! Laugh and enjoy Horrible Histories performances in The Stoller Hall – revealing the gruesome side of history. Prepare to be disgusted by medieval antics!
There’s lots of additional activities to get involved in, which can be added to your festival ticket, including Horrible Histories performances, Creative Music Workshops and Chetham’s Library tours.
