Out Now – Talking Queer TV from 90s to Now with Scott Bryan
Join Scott Bryan, BuzzFeed's renowned telly expert and LGBTQ+ culture commentator, for an engaging afternoon exploring how queer representation has transformed on television over the past three decades. This event offers a brilliant chance to dive into pivotal moments in TV history, from iconic 90s shows to today's groundbreaking series, with insights from someone who genuinely knows their stuff. Whether you're a dedicated box-set binger or simply curious about how the small screen has evolved, this is an unmissable conversation about representation, storytelling, and cultural change.
New Century Hall sits right in the heart of Manchester's vibrant Northern Quarter, surrounded by independent shops, galleries, and some of the city's best cafes and bars. The venue itself is a stunning Grade II-listed Victorian building that's been brilliantly restored, making it the perfect atmospheric setting for quality cultural events that draw Manchester's creative crowd.
The event kicks off at 4pm on Sunday 23 August 2026, with doors opening beforehand to soak up the Northern Quarter vibes. At 14+, it's perfect for teens and adults keen to explore LGBTQ+ media representation together. Arrive early to grab a drink at one of the surrounding independent venues and make a proper afternoon of it in one of Manchester's coolest neighbourhoods.
