# Sienna Spiro at Manchester Academy
Sienna Spiro brings her distinctive indie pop sound to Manchester Academy on Saturday 16 May 2026, kicking off at 7pm. This is a brilliant chance to catch a rising artist in an intimate setting before she hits even bigger stages, with her clever songwriting and engaging live performances making for a memorable night out in the city.
Manchester Academy sits right on Oxford Road in the heart of the student quarter, making it one of the city's most iconic live music venues. The 3,000-capacity room has hosted countless breakthrough acts over the years and offers the perfect balance between an up-close connection with the artist and a proper gig atmosphere that Manchester audiences love.
Getting there is straightforward — Oxford Road is served by Metrolink trams and buses, with loads of nearby car parks if you're driving in. The area's packed with pre-gig pubs and restaurants, so grab a drink before heading in and settle in early to soak up the Manchester Academy vibe. Bring a jumper as venues can get warm once it fills up, and expect a friendly, music-loving crowd ready for a proper Saturday night.
