About This Event

Pushing Embers is bringing live music magic to Manchester on Saturday 12 September 2026, and it's not one to miss if you're after a proper night out. This is the kind of gig that'll stick with you – intimate enough to feel connected to the performance, but with enough energy to keep the crowd buzzing all night. Whether you're a regular on the Manchester live music circuit or looking to discover something fresh, this show at The Spinning Top promises to be a cracking evening.

The Spinning Top sits right in the heart of Manchester's vibrant live music scene, surrounded by the kind of independent venues and bars that make our city the real deal. It's got that authentic Manchester vibe – no corporate nonsense, just proper music lovers and a sound system that does the business. The venue's intimate setup means you'll get close to the action whatever your spot in the room.

The doors open at 20:00 on the night, so arrive early if you fancy grabbing a decent spot near the stage. Head into town with time to spare and soak up the pre-gig atmosphere in one of the nearby pubs – you've got proper ale houses and cosy spots all around. Expect a packed room, top-notch acoustics, and that special Manchester energy that reminds you why live music matters.
