The Monton Lighthouse Bank Holiday Special on Saturday 29 August 2026 is a premium cultural event that brings cutting-edge entertainment to one of Manchester's most exciting independent venues. Priced at £35 per ticket with an 18+ age restriction, this afternoon event promises an unforgettable experience for adults looking to make the most of their bank holiday weekend. It's the perfect opportunity to discover what makes Manchester's underground culture scene so compelling and worth travelling across the city for.

The Monton Lighthouse has established itself as a powerhouse for innovative arts and culture in Greater Manchester, nestled in the heart of Monton village just outside the city centre. This intimate venue punches well above its weight, hosting everything from live performances to immersive installations that draw crowds from across the region. Its reputation for quality programming and unique atmosphere makes it essential viewing for anyone serious about Manchester's alternative scene.
