Carlton Queer Clubhouse returns to Manchester for its fourth instalment on Saturday 23 May 2026, with Mandy Beck-McKim curating an unforgettable night titled "Extraordinary II". This free event celebrates LGBTQ+ creativity and nightlife culture in the city, bringing together music, performance, and community in an inclusive space that's become essential to Manchester's queer scene. If you missed the previous editions, this is your chance to experience what's quickly becoming a staple of the city's underground nightlife calendar.
Hosted at The Carlton Club on Deansgate, the event takes place in one of Manchester's most iconic venues, perfectly positioned in the heart of the city centre. The Carlton's intimate setting and excellent sound system make it an ideal space for the kind of immersive, artist-led experience that Carlton Queer Clubhouse is known for. Deansgate's central location means you're surrounded by late-night food, bars, and transport links back across Greater Manchester.
Doors open at 8pm for this 18+ only event, so arrive early to soak up the atmosphere and grab a drink. Expect a night of carefully selected sounds and performances that push boundaries – bring your friends, dress however makes you feel extraordinary, and prepare for a proper Manchester queer celebration. With free entry, there's no excuse to miss it.
