About this Event

Manchester’s story in one entertaining history walk

Raves & Revolutions

From the Romans, through to the industrial revolution, to the music and rave scene. How did Manchester shape itself into being the radical, diverse & ambitious city it is today? Join Actor and History Investigator Chris Hoyle, every weekend, as he takes you on a journey unlocking and celebrating Manchester's incredible past.

You will see beautiful parts of the city whilst hearing stories about radical movements, iconic Mancunians, protests, revolutions and acid house.

The walk includes a pub stop at a historic pub.
