Every Sunday in the run up to Christmas, Manchester will put on an event for the public in the centre of the city. Full details of the events can be found here.
A group of us will meet on Sunday 26th November to record the first of these events in photographs. Before we wander amongst the street performances,, live music and giant animated puppets, we will join together for a lunch taken from the Christmas Market stalls newly opened in Cathedral Gardens.
Programme:
12 noon: Meet by the east window of the cathedral here. Nearest tram stops Exchange Square or Victoria Station
12:15 lunch taken from the Christmas Market cabins in Cathedral Gardens. You pay for your own food.
12.45 Wander together through Exchange Square, New Cathedral Street, Exchange Street, St Ann’s Square, King Street and Deansgate enjoying the sights and sounds of this festive event, and taking photographs.
3.00 Coffee & Cake Finale in one of the many coffee outlets around the area
4.00 End

Hi @PeteMHW,
I can't open the events page you linked at the beginning of your post, but it could just be my connection. Still! The festive season is officially starting in Manchester, what a treat. 🤩 I can't wait to see all the photos from the photo walk here.
Since this is a meet-up announcement, I will change the topic of your post to Meet-ups.
P.S. I hope there will be photos of the "cake finale" too. 😁

You're right @DeniGu the link I put in has stopped working - so I've replaced it with a new one, which is basically the same information!
Thanks for relocating the post to the right topic.
One day perhaps, you'll come and join us for an event. Maybe you'll get a taste for our lovely city if you make it here to the EuroMeetup next June.
