Girl Size and Billie Skreamz are bringing an exciting live music night to Manchester on Sunday 16 August 2026, and it's the perfect opportunity to catch some brilliant emerging talent without breaking the bank. With tickets ranging from just £7.50 to £15.00, this is an accessible gig that punches well above its price point – ideal for discovering your next favourite band in an intimate setting that actually lets you hear the music properly.
FUEL Café Bar sits in the heart of Withington, one of Manchester's most vibrant neighbourhoods packed with independent cafes, vintage shops and a genuinely creative atmosphere. The venue itself has built a solid reputation for hosting quality live acts in a relaxed, unpretentious environment where the focus stays on the music rather than the bells and whistles. It's the kind of place where you'll bump into proper music fans and musicians grabbing a drink afterwards.
Getting to FUEL is straightforward – Withington's well-connected by tram and bus, and there's usually decent parking nearby if you're driving. Head down early to grab a decent spot and maybe grab some food or a drink beforehand; the café does proper coffee and decent booze. With doors at 19:00, you'll want to arrive by 7:30 to avoid missing any of the sets.
