Halloween is right around the corner and the festival of the dead is one big party that you should be adding to your bucket list to do over Halloween, with all the fun events happening throughout Manchester. 

On Saturday the 27th of October, a huge festival celebrating the dead will return to Bowlers Manchester. Located in Stretford of Manchester, Bowlers a huge exhibition center will hold one of the biggest Halloween events of the year. Titled Festival of the Dead – chapter 2, Limbo, they will take you on a party trip to purgatory. Although they first started out in October of last year, they wanted to see if people would still go to the festival’s although it wasn’t Halloween, and shockingly they sold out in major cities throughout the year, as people must love all things creepy and crazy. After such a successful, sold out show in January too, this is a festival you need to get your claws into. 

You can expect lots of fun over the Halloween weekend, with bright colours and face paints. Think circus themed, acrobatics, dancers, circus performers, fire breathers and even more! Your jaw will be dropping at these amazing performances, so make sure you don’t miss out and make sure you join in with all the madness by dressing up and painting your face to have the best Halloween ever!

Why choose to be scared of the dead when you can celebrate it and party like you’ve never partied before?
