Charlie Puth – Whatever's Clever! World Tour at Manchester Academy
Charlie Puth is bringing his Whatever's Clever! World Tour to Manchester Academy on Wednesday 22 July 2026, and it's a must-see for pop and R&B fans across the North West. The American singer-songwriter and producer is known for his incredible vocal range, multi-instrumental talents, and chart-topping hits like "Attention" and "See You Again," so expect a masterclass in modern pop performance. Whether you're a long-time fan or just discovering his music, this gig promises an intimate yet high-energy night with one of the most technically gifted artists in the industry.
Manchester Academy is one of the city's finest mid-sized venues, nestled in the heart of the university quarter with its iconic brick facade and legendary acoustics that have hosted everyone from Arctic Monkeys to international superstars. The venue's 3,000 capacity creates that perfect sweet spot—big enough for a proper show but small enough to feel personal and connected to the artist.
Getting to the Academy is straightforward via public transport, with Piccadilly Station just ten minutes' walk away, or grab a tram straight into town. Arrive early to soak up the pre-gig atmosphere in the surrounding bars and restaurants, and be prepared for an evening of slick production, impressive musicianship, and sing-alongs to some genuine modern pop classics. This is the kind of show that'll have you talking about it for weeks.
