Don’t worry, I’ve found something special for everyone, no matter what your idea of fun.Ī post shared by Meg Cale on at 12:45am PST LGBT Manchester Hotspots As with most big cities, Manchester has a thriving gay village on the world famous Canal Street – often graffitied to read “Anal Treet” for reasons that you can probably guess – set on the banks of the Roachdale Canal. Some of you will want to check out the bar scene in order to find a nice English girl or party the day and night away at Pride, whereas some of you will be more interested in discovering Manchester’s gay history and taking in the cultural activities. As you can probably guess, this article is going to focus on gay Manchester but more specifically places, events, and activities, that cater specifically for gay women and not on places that are geared towards just anybody, but we know the queer community is diverse and nuanced and that not every lesbian is into the same sort of things. It’s pretty obvious why the side of lesbians flock to Manchester.
Manchester is a city known for its musical talent (The Smiths, The 1975, Oasis), it’s “radical literary history” (according to UNESCO), and its wide array of sporting triumphs (Manchester United soccer team), but it is also the perfect vacation spot for women who love women, featuring a famous lesbian bar, a gay village, and plenty of queer history.
