After Hours Club invites you to an evening designed to bring Manchester together in the spirit of Community Not Competition. In a world where professional and personal divides can often feel overwhelming, we’re creating a space where collaboration, connection, and growth take centre stage.

This event isn’t just about networking, it’s about building genuine relationships, sharing experiences, and leaving with new perspectives. Whether you’re a business owner, creative, professional, or simply curious about connecting with like-minded people, you’ll find a welcoming environment where everyone has something to give and something to gain.

What to expect
• Inspiring talks and stories from guest speakers highlighting the importance of unity, wellbeing, and collaboration in today’s workplaces and communities.
• An open, inclusive space for conversations that go beyond the usual “9 to 5 small talk,” with opportunities to share your own journey and learn from others.
• Delicious food and refreshments to enjoy as you connect with attendees across Manchester’s diverse professional and creative scene.
• A chance to be part of a movement that celebrates local voices, encourages mutual support, and aims to bridge divisions in our city.

Why attend?
After Hours Club is more than an event series, it’s a growing community. Our ethos of Community Not Competition underpins everything we do, from the way we bring people together to the partnerships we foster with local brands. By joining us, you’re not just attending a networking evening, you’re contributing to a culture of collaboration that strengthens individuals, businesses, and Manchester as a whole.

Step into a space where barriers come down, conversations flow, and opportunities are born. Together, we can create a future that’s not about competing to be the loudest voice in the room, but about raising each other up.
