It is still possible, but very difficult, to get tickets to matches and see the likes of Alex Ferguson, Christ…

Thanks to a friend, who is working as a manager at VLM Airlines, we had the opportunity to fly for only €50 to Manchester Ringway Airport, the European walhalla for planespotters. The surrounding area is facilitated with a real planespotters park, next to the runway. Over ther you can make some pi…

Ok, this is a geeky science museum, but it is fun. The Museum of Science and Industry is huge. It is cleverly split over five zones and offers a route around where you can see all it has on offer. Be warned, to see everything, you will be overloaded with information, and it will take you the best…

Urbis is a museum come gallery with a great shop and cafe in the heart of Manchester. Housing off the wall exhibits, often with a theme of Manchester history or social responsibility, it is a fascinating place to end up. And it's free. Score.
Amongst the exhibitions I've seen there has been one…

If you like Classical music, than you should visit the Royal Northern College of Music. They have dozens of concerts a month, and many of them take place in an intimate auditorium. Some student concerts are even free. Musicians I've heard include Richard Goode, Katia Labeque, and Melvin Tan.

Going on our first big trip alone, my best friend and I found ourselves flying to Manchester. It was nothing like we expected. Having been to London before I thought Manchester would carry that very open welcoming touristy feeling, but we found it to be the complete opposite. We tried to find intere…

I must admit I found this largely disappointing. Now I'm not a huge art fan, but I do like to see skill well beyond what I can do.
The main show pieces are from Manchester's most recognised artist: L.S. Lowry, everyone else is just a local artist trying to make it in an already saturated artisti…
