THEBOYSHADOW at The Star and Garter

THEBOYSHADOW are bringing their distinctive sound to Manchester's iconic Star and Garter on Thursday 5 November 2026, kicking off at 19:00. This is a must-see gig for anyone after a genuinely fresh take on contemporary music, with a loyal following that speaks volumes about their live presence and production quality.

The Star and Garter sits right in Manchester city centre, a proper gem of a venue that's hosted countless memorable nights over the years. Its intimate setting strikes that perfect balance—close enough to really connect with the performance, but with excellent sound and sightlines throughout. The venue's got that authentic Manchester character too, loved locally for championing both established acts and rising talent.

Head down early if you want a decent spot; city-centre venues fill up quick, especially for Thursday nights. Getting there's easy via Metrolink or bus, with plenty of independent bars and restaurants within walking distance if you fancy making an evening of it. Doors are at 19:00, so aim to arrive by half-eight to grab your spot and soak in the atmosphere before THEBOYSHADOW take the stage.
