Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Borough Arcade

"Royal Exchange Theatre, St Ann’s Square, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M2 7DH - Visit now. This former trading hall underwent a £32m redevelopment after being severely damaged by the 1996 IRA bomb in Manchester’s city centre – and has been delivering stellar productions from its unusual seven-sided glass and steel theatre-in-the-round (the biggest in the UK), and smaller (but still excellent) studio, ever since. Productions here are renowned – both Vanessa Redgrave and Helen Mirren have graced the Royal Exchange’s stage."

"Admittedly, you have to pay for a theatre ticket if you want to watch a performance at the Royal Exchange Theatre. However, I really love the building itself, especially the pink Grand Hall, and think it’s worth a visit for the Victorian architecture alone."

"This is truly an amazing building and its history also tells the history of Manchester. Not officially a museum, The Royal Exchange is definitely worth exploring. You only need to step into the great entrance hall to understand why you should pop in."

"Incorporating classical architecture elements, it is hard to ignore Sheffield City Hall. The building is made of sandstone, which gives it its traditional, yet regal look. The city hall has been open since 1932 and is the heart of our lovely town."

"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."

"Another one that you'll have to exercise patience for is the RNCM (Royal Northern College of Music), which is - understandably - prioritising the return of students and tutors. You can see the latest updates at www.rncm.ac.uk."

"The Royal Northern College of Music is an internationally acclaimed conservatoire, as well as an eclectic performance venue delivering a diverse programme of music and opera performances."

Fuku Food MCR, Hatch, 103 Oxford Rd, M1 7ED."

"Pizzas are big business these days, but gone are the times of cheap and cheerful pizza, and here to stay is an emphasis on quality ingredients, wood-fired ovens, slow-proved dough, the delicious charred spots around the crisped-up crusts, and some interesting toppings. https://www.instagram.com/p/BudzAWfAEdt/. You can get a pretty big pizza from just £6.50, with a range of choices – such as the ever-reliable Maggie, the Simply Salami, or the True Blue (Yorkshire blue cheese, ground hazelnuts, caramelised red onions, and mozzarella)."
