Parties & Creative Club Nights

Braless pillowfights in your pyjamas, slow dances with your mum and midnight moments from tap dancing, to flashmobs, lip synchs and singalongs – there ain’t no party like a Girl Gang party! We love to celebrate BIG and since our formation have been running club nights and parties, always with an extra special twist.

Here at Girl Gang we certainly know how to throw a party and have been honoured to host celebrations for many of Manchester’s finest, such as People’s History Museum’s 10th Birthday Party, Bury Met’s International Women’s Day Celebration and Pankhurst’s Centenary Party.

We are always keen to push the boundaries of what a “night out” looks like and transform spaces into fun, creative nights for our audience to experience; with live pop up performances, fully decorated venues, workshops and activities to take part in, photobooths to dress up and babe-fronted music played all night long by our incredible local DJs.

Learn more about some of our parties and creative club nights below.
