Forget the Grand Canal of Venice, these are the Grand Canals of Manchester on a wonderful waterside wander through secret parts of the city.

Join official canal guide Ed Glinert on this spectacular stroll along the waterways of Manchester, invoking a host of stories industrial and architectural, anecdotal and incidental, as we head west from Piccadilly, along the canals under the city streets towards Britain’s grand canal junction at Castlefield where four waterways cross.

Route: Malmaison – the Venetian-styled Crown Court – Canal Street – Gay Village – Bloom Street power station – under Oxford Street – Lee House – the Ritz – Manchester & Salford Junction Canal detour – the Hacienda – Roman fort – Duke’s 92 – the hut from where you could emigrate to America – Castlefield Canal Basin.

Tickets are free and can be obtained via Eventbrite:

The tour is free, but donations are very welcomed for the amazing tour guide!

I'll arrive at the starting point of the tour at 2.15pm ahead of a 2.30pm start. We can head for a drink afterwards around the Castlefield area.
