Laravel Manchester #3

Join us for Laravel Manchester #3 on Wednesday, 22nd April 2026! 🎉

We'll be hosting regular meetups for developers, enthusiasts, and anyone interested in Laravel, with talks from Laravel lovers across the UK.

In this meetup, we'll be hearing from:

Speakers and talks 🌟
1. Laravel in the Trenches: 7 Years of Wins, Woes, and WTFs
- Toby Bradshaw, Principal Engineer at Street Group
Toby will be sharing the lessons learnt from building an enterprise-grade SaaS platform with Laravel - what went well, what went wrong, and what they'd definitely do differently if starting again.

2. Ulysses versus The Very Hungry Caterpillar
- Andy Carter, Technical Team Lead at Evoluted
As AI becomes more prevalent in our industry, it's more important than ever to recognise the value of true craftsmanship. In this talk, we'll draw insights from two literary classics to explore why writing clean, thoughtful code still matters.
