About This Event

KELS brings their distinctive sound to Manchester on Monday 17 August 2026, delivering an unmissable live performance at one of the city's most intimate music venues. This is your chance to catch a quality artist in a setting that genuinely connects performer and audience, making for the kind of gig you'll still be talking about weeks later.

The Deaf Institute on Oxford Road is a Manchester institution beloved by music fans for its brilliant acoustics and no-nonsense approach to live entertainment. Located right in the heart of the city centre, it's become known for hosting everything from emerging talent to established acts, with a reputation for getting the sound just right every single time.

The gig kicks off at 7pm, so head down early to grab a drink and soak in the atmosphere before KELS takes the stage. Oxford Road is dead easy to reach whether you're coming by tram, bus or on foot, and there's plenty of food and drink options nearby if you want to make an evening of it. Get your tickets sorted early though – The Deaf Institute shows have a habit of selling out with Manchester's discerning music crowd.
