Vai Brasa Match Day & After Party – Manchester Events Guide

Head down to Red Arch on Saturday 13 June 2026 for Vai Brasa's match day celebrations and after party, a brilliant free night that brings together football fans and party-goers in the Northern Quarter. Whether you're watching the big game or arriving after kick-off, this is your chance to soak up the electric atmosphere with a crowd that knows how to celebrate in proper Manchester style. It's the perfect excuse to get out on a Saturday night without breaking the bank.

Red Arch sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, an area that's become synonymous with independent bars, street art, and genuine local culture. The venue itself has become a proper hub for match day gatherings and late-night events, offering that raw, unpretentious vibe that makes the Quarter such a draw for Mancunians. You'll be rubbing shoulders with locals who actually care about the action and the atmosphere.

The party kicks off at 10 PM, so plan to arrive early if you want a good spot for the match – it gets packed quickly on game days. The Northern Quarter's got brilliant transport links via Piccadilly and Market Street, and there's plenty of other bars nearby if you fancy a pre-match pint. Just remember it's 18+ only, so bring ID. Expect a proper celebration whatever the result.
