Things to do

Manchester will enchant families with its exciting blend of history, outdoors, and culture. Our guide outlines some must-visit attractions in Manchester to help you create the perfect family itinerary.

Begin your Manchester adventure at Albert Square, exploring the remarkable architecture of the Town Hall, then create lasting memories with your family by snapping a photo at the Albert Memorial. For a taste of local culture, head to nearby attractions such as the Opera House and the People's History Museum.

For family fun in the great outdoors, venture to Chorlton Water Park for a variety of activities such as bird-watching, walking, cycling, and kayaking. Also, be sure to discover Kenworthy Wood, Mersey Valley Planting Scheme, and Fairy Lane Wood to keep your little explorers entertained.

Next, head to Philips Park to immerse yourself in its Grade II-listed gardens, let the children run free in the play area or perhaps discover the on-site gin distillery. Don't forget to catch the annual events hosted at this picturesque park, such as Party in the Park and a free firework display in Philips Park.

Finally, indulge in some retail therapy at Manchester's Central Retail District, where the entire family can enjoy shopping opportunities to suit all tastes and budgets. From boutique shops to high-street fashion and charming cafes, there's no shortage of delights to discover.

When to visit

The best time to visit Manchester for families is during the warmer months, between April and October, when the city's delightful green spaces and outdoor activities can be fully enjoyed. Manchester's peak season lies between June, July, October, and December, which is when you are likely to find the widest range of family-friendly events and attractions. For budget-conscious travellers, November is the cheapest month for hotel prices, making it the ideal time to plan your family getaway. If your children are of school age, ensure your travel plans coincide with their school holidays to avoid any unnecessary fines.
