Get Pitched! is a free cultural showcase happening at Oscars Bar Manchester on Thursday 21 May 2026 at 9pm, offering a brilliant night of live pitches from local creatives and performers. Whether you're keen to discover emerging talent, get inspired by fresh ideas, or simply fancy a night out with a difference, this 18+ event delivers genuine entertainment without breaking the bank. It's the kind of grassroots Manchester event that celebrates what our city does best – supporting homegrown artists and giving them a proper platform.
Oscars Bar sits right in Manchester city centre, a favourite spot for anyone serious about live culture and good vibes. The intimate venue creates the perfect atmosphere for up-close performances and pitches, making it feel like you're genuinely part of something special rather than just watching from the sidelines. The bar's central location means you can easily combine it with other city-centre plans, whether that's grabbing food beforehand or hitting another spot afterwards.
Getting there couldn't be easier – the venue's minutes from Manchester Piccadilly station and close to several tram stops if you're heading in from further afield. Arrive early if you want a good spot near the action, and bring mates along to make an evening of it. With free entry and the chance to catch the next big thing in Manchester culture, Get Pitched! is absolutely worth your Thursday night.
