What was your first live experience?
13 July, 2026
1 in 4 young people today still haven't felt the power of live entertainment. So we asked our community to tell them what it feels like. Because some things can't be explained by statistics. They live in the goosebumps before the lights go down. The strangers who become friends. The songs that become memories. The moments that remind you where you're from. This is Manchester, in the words of the people who know it best.
