Phantogram at Manchester Academy
Phantogram are bringing their electrifying synth-pop and electronic soundscapes to Manchester Club Academy on Monday 6 July 2026, kicking off at 19:30. This Brooklyn-based duo, fronted by Sarah Beth Durst and Josh Carter, are renowned for their hypnotic, atmospheric performances that blend brooding vocals with intricate production, making this an essential gig for electronic and indie music fans across Greater Manchester.
Club Academy sits right in the heart of Manchester's cultural quarter on Oxford Road, surrounded by legendary music venues and the energy that's made our city a proper hub for live entertainment. The venue itself is intimate enough to create that connected feeling with the artists, yet spacious enough to accommodate a proper crowd without feeling rammed in – it's the sweet spot for mid-sized gigs in the city centre.
Get there early if you want a decent spot, as Phantogram shows tend to draw dedicated fans who know what's coming. The venue's well-served by public transport with Manchester Piccadilly station just a short walk away, and there's plenty of pre-gig drinking spots around Oxford Road if you fancy building the atmosphere beforehand. Expect moody lighting, immersive synth work, and a genuinely atmospheric evening that'll stick with you long after you've headed home.
