BBC 6 Music Festival Moves Permanently to Manchester

17 January 2025

The annual, flagship 6 Music Festival is now based permanently in Greater Manchester.

Attendees can expect performances from their favourite artists and everything from new music debuts to one-off collaborations and surprise guests.

Between 26th – 29th March, BBC 6 Music will take over some of Greater Manchester’s much-loved venues, treating giggoers to a mix of live performances and DJ sets from a broad range of new and established acts.

The station’s presenters will also broadcast their shows live from MediaCityUK in Salford, as well as from the festival venues.

Full line-up and venues will be announced in February 2025.

Highlights will also be broadcast on BBC TV, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Music YouTube channel.
