The Loft: Bushbaby (All Night Long) – Manchester Events Guide
If you're after a proper night out in Manchester, The Loft's Bushbaby all-nighter on Thursday 8 October 2026 is exactly what you need. Running from 11pm through the early hours, this is your chance to lose yourself on the dancefloor with quality music and a buzzing crowd that's there for the long haul. At just £10-£15 entry, it's decent value for an all-night session in the city centre.
The Loft MCR has carved out a solid reputation as one of Manchester's go-to spots for electronic and underground music, nestled right in the heart where the Northern Quarter meets the main action. The venue's intimate setup means you get proper sound quality without feeling squeezed in, and the crowd here genuinely knows their stuff when it comes to music. It's the kind of place where the vibe actually builds as the night goes on rather than fizzling out.
Head to The Loft MCR early if you can—doors open at 11pm but it really gets going after midnight. Wear something you don't mind getting sweaty in, bring some cash for drinks, and expect to be there until dawn if Bushbaby's doing their thing properly. The area's well-served by late-night transport and kebab shops, so getting home sorted won't be a hassle either.
