Faster Pussycat are bringing their legendary 40th Anniversary Tour to Manchester, and this is a proper occasion for anyone who lived through the glam metal explosion of the 1980s. The LA shock-rockers defined a generation with massive hits like "Poison Ivy" and "House of Pain," and this tour celebrates four decades of outrageous performances and unforgettable music. If you're after an evening of pure rock and roll excess with one of the genre's most charismatic bands, this is unmissable.
Holy Diver is one of Manchester's best-loved live music venues, nestled in the Northern Quarter where the city's creative heart really beats. The intimate setting means you'll get a proper connection with the band—no stadium distance here—while the venue's excellent sound system and killer atmosphere make it the perfect spot for a major rock night. The Northern Quarter itself is packed with brilliant bars and restaurants if you fancy turning it into a full evening out.
Head to Holy Diver on Friday 4 September from 7pm onwards, with doors opening early if you want to grab a good spot. Tickets are £27, and you'll need to be 18+ to get in. The Northern Quarter is well-served by tram and bus links, with plenty of nearby parking too, so getting there's straightforward. Arrive early to soak up the pre-gig buzz and maybe catch any support acts.
