Funkademia's bringing Get On Down to Manchester on Friday 17 July 2026, and if you're after a proper night of funk, soul, and groove, this is your lot. The event kicks off at 6pm and promises to be packed with the kind of infectious beats that'll have you moving until late, with ticket prices ranging from £17.99 to £41.99 depending on what package you fancy.
New Century Kitchen in the Northern Quarter is the perfect spot for this kind of night out – it's become one of Manchester's go-to venues for quality live music and DJ sets, sat right in the heart of the city's creative neighbourhood. The Northern Quarter's got that brilliant energy with loads of independent bars and restaurants nearby, so you can easily make an evening of it before or after the main event.
Getting there's dead straightforward – it's just a short walk from Piccadilly Station or a quick bus ride into town. The venue's got a buzzing atmosphere with top-notch sound, so arrive early if you want a decent spot near the front. Fair warning though – Funkademia nights draw a proper crowd, so it'll be rammed by 8pm, but that's half the fun when everyone's in high spirits and the bass is thumping.
