Who can I speak to about accessibility needs?

If you have any questions or concerns, please email: info@sparkle.org.uk

Will there be any sober spaces?

Yes - the Family & Youth Zone, Positivity Zone, and Wellness Zone are all sober spaces.

Will the event be safe?

Our security teams are highly trained and have all undergone trans awareness training. We hope to keep you safe and comfortable by operating with sensitively done bag checks, politeness and pronoun awareness.

Are children allowed to attend?

Children and families are encouraged to attend! We have a dedicated Family & Youth Zone with support services, activities, and children's entertainment.

There are many roadside bays in the area, NCP carparks locally, and longer term bays over at Manchester Piccadilly station. Charles Street Carpark is also very local.

Can we bring dogs to the event?

Yes, but please be aware there are assistance dogs working on site and as such, pets should remain on leads at all times. Poo bags, water and shade is available on site.
