Rat Trap is bringing a cracking night of live music to Manchester's Castle Hotel on Saturday 22 August 2026, kicking off at 7pm. If you're after a proper gig in an intimate setting where you can actually hear the band and have a decent chat, this is absolutely worth your time – and at just £9 a ticket, it won't break the bank either.
The Castle Hotel sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, one of the city's best neighbourhoods for a night out. The venue's got loads of character with its cosy gig room vibe, and you'll find yourself surrounded by proper music lovers rather than your average weekend crowd. It's the sort of place where bands actually connect with their audience, not just play at them.
Getting there is dead easy – it's on Oldham Street, which is dead central and packed with bars and food spots if you fancy a pre-gig drink. The event's 18+ only, so bring your ID to be safe. Rock up early to grab a good spot near the stage and soak in that authentic Manchester gig atmosphere you just can't replicate in the bigger venues. It's a Saturday night well spent.Browse more Music events in Manchester or explore Northern Quarter.
