About SocialNorth:

Founded in Manchester in 2018. Revamped for the entire North in 2022.

SocialNorth is the largest professional community, networking, and speaker event series taking place across the vibrant cities of the North, for the digital, social media, marketing & creative industries.

SocialNorth is now a 2,000+ strong community of the North's finest talent across Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, and Newcastle.

The SocialNorth Mission:

Connect, inspire, and empower the Digital Communities of the North through industry-leading events and experiences. Make events memorable, deliver experiences people talk about, and create opportunities for genuine connection.

Why SocialNorth exists:

The North is starved of opportunities compared to London. People in the North are forced to spend big to travel South for events. We believe the North deserves better. SocialNorth was created to fill the gap and create the highest quality industry events in the North.
