Manchester Marriott Hotel Piccadilly is set to become one of the city’s must-see Halloween destinations this autumn, with the latest addition Spookadilly, a gigantic new monster installation making its debut as part of the legendary MCR Monsters trail.
From Saturday 25th – Friday 31st October 2025, visitors will be greeted by Spookadilly perched dramatically across the hotel’s Piccadilly-facing canopy. With its bold design and presence, this fearsome creature promises to be one of the trail’s standout monsters, offering locals, guests, and monster hunters the perfect photo opportunity as it looms over Manchester’s skyline.
The hotel will also be joining in the city-wide activities by lighting up its front steps in eerie green, ensuring the Halloween spirit shines brightly in Piccadilly. Paired with the unmissable bright red monster, Marriott Manchester Hotel Piccadilly will be a true representation of the spooky transformation of the city, the eerie yet inviting display for families and friends looking to begin a spooky staycation, or hunt the wonders of the northern skyline.
Step out of Marriott Hotel Manchester Piccadilly and enjoy Halloween in the City a takeover of Manchester from Saturday 25 – Sunday 26 October 2025, with free family events across the city centre. Visitors can celebrate the arrival of Halloween with a host of monstrously good activities, including the return of the MCR Monsters, live performances, and fancy-dress fun.
