About This Event

Calling all champagne-loving fashion fanatics – the Ab Fab A-Thon is coming to Manchester on Saturday 22 August 2026, and it's the ultimate night for anyone who grew up worshipping Patsy and Edina. This 18+ nightlife event at New Century Hall promises an evening of 80s and 90s nostalgia, killer cocktails, and unapologetic camp entertainment that'll have you quoting your favourite Absolutely Fabulous moments all night long. At just £15 entry, it's a bargain for a proper themed night out with fellow fans of the cult classic.

New Century Hall sits right in the heart of Manchester's vibrant Northern Quarter, a neighbourhood buzzing with independent bars, restaurants, and creative venues. The Grade II-listed Victorian building is the perfect backdrop for this glamorous throwback night, combining period character with a contemporary party atmosphere that keeps locals coming back week after week.

Getting there's easy – the venue's just a short walk from Piccadilly Station or bang in the middle of town if you're heading out from Deansgate. Expect costume-friendly vibes, so dust off those leopard prints and oversized sunglasses, grab your mates, and prepare for an absolutely fabulous evening of proper Manchester nightlife.
