Britpop Curious? Manchester Events Guide
Britpop Curious? is an early doors Manchester night celebrating the swagger and swagger of '90s Britpop on Saturday 25 July 2026, kicking off at 18:00. If you're after an excuse to dust off your Oasis and Blur records and belt them out alongside fellow fans, this is exactly your scene – it's the perfect antidote to the usual Saturday night circuit and won't break the bank at just five quid entry.
Aatma sits right in Manchester's vibrant city centre, a proper neighbourhood favourite known for its welcoming vibe and quality sound system that'll do justice to those iconic Britpop anthems. The venue's intimate atmosphere means you'll get up close and personal with the music rather than getting lost in a massive crowd, which is exactly what you want when you're reliving the golden era of British guitar music.
Getting there's straightforward – the city centre's well-connected by Metrolink and buses, with plenty of late-night options when you're heading home. Expect a proper mixed crowd of music lovers and come prepared to sing every word to "Wonderwall" and "Girls & Boys" – it's that kind of night. Doors open early so you can settle in, grab a drink, and soak up the atmosphere without the madness of later Saturday nights.
