The Sway at The Lodge At Deaf Institute
The Sway is bringing live music to Manchester on Friday 4 September 2026, offering an excellent night out for music lovers aged 14 and up. At just £13.00 a ticket, it's a brilliant value gig that promises to showcase talented performers in an intimate setting. Whether you're into indie, alternative, or contemporary music, this is the kind of grassroots Manchester event that keeps the city's vibrant music scene thriving.
The Lodge At Deaf Institute sits on Oxford Road, right in the heart of Manchester's cultural quarter where some of the city's best independent venues cluster together. This intimate space has built a reputation for hosting quality live music acts and creating an authentic atmosphere that big venues simply can't match. The venue's setup makes every gig feel special and connected, perfect for discovering new music or catching rising talent.
Getting to the gig is straightforward – Oxford Road is well-served by buses and trams, with Deansgate-Castlefield tram station nearby for easy access. Doors open at 19:00, so arrive early to soak in the pre-show buzz and grab a drink. The 14+ age restriction means younger music fans can join in too, making this a genuinely inclusive Manchester night out that won't break the bank.
