If you’re up for a big weekend a fortnight from now, why not combine the aforementioned Chorlton Beer Festival with Summer in the Park, which takes place at Platt Fields Park in Fallowfield on 12 and 13 July.

24.Chorlton Beer Festival 08 at St Clement’s Church(Wednesday 25th of June 2008 10:39:23 AM 1 week, 3 days ago )
I’m also getting plenty of traffic from people desperate for news on this year’s Chorlton Beer Festival. The host church, St Clement’s on Hardy Lane, hasn’t updated its website since last July, which is leading to some confusion.
Thankfully, however, there’s good news: Chorlton Beer Festival will return for its...

26.Zorbing/sphering near Manchester(Friday 20th of June 2008 03:33:54 PM 2 weeks ago )
I’ve been getting a number of hits lately for “zorbing Manchester”, something I mentioned briefly last September.
For those who think that rolling downhill at 60kmph in a giant plastic bubble is a Good Idea (it’s supposedly a summer pursuit after all), you’ll be glad to hear that the...

29.TRIP 2008: A Manchester psychogeography festival(Wednesday 18th of June 2008 03:28:11 PM 2 weeks, 2 days ago )
I’ve touched on psychogeography here a few times before and, what with it getting mainstream coverage of late, it’s convenient that Manchester is currently hosting not one but two psychogeography festivals.
Territories Reimagined: International Perspectives, or TRIP for short, runs from Thursday 19 June until Saturday (and beyond) and...
