Manchester comes alive at Christmas, and the city’s festive activities are the perfect way to dive into the seasonal spirit. Whether you want to sip something sparkling while painting a masterpiece, craft the perfect wreath to impress your nan, or enjoy a themed bottomless brunch with friends, there’s no shortage of ways to celebrate.
Each activity is designed to be social, fun and full of festive cheer, so even if your artistic skills are more “abstract disaster” than “masterpiece”, you’re guaranteed a good time. Groups of all sizes can join in, creating laughter, friendly competition and a sense of seasonal camaraderie. From cosy workshops in intimate venues to bustling brunches in lively city spots, Manchester has an activity to match every festive mood. It’s a brilliant alternative to a full-blown Christmas party and gives you the chance to make memories as well as decorations.

Expect a cheerful, informal atmosphere where everyone is encouraged to get involved and enjoy themselves. It’s as much about the company and the stories you’ll tell afterwards as the activity itself.
