Neighbourhood Festival 2019 - stage times, venues and everything else you need to know

Bars and gig venues across Manchester city centre will be filled with back-to-back live music this weekend as Neighbourhood Festival arrives.

The one day, multi-venue festival is back for another year, with venues including Albert Hall, the O2 Ritz and Manchester Academy.

Miles Kane will headline Saturday's event, alongside The Sherlocks, The Tawng, The Blinders and Larkins.

If you're heading there this weekend, or planning to, here's everything you need to know.

Can I still get tickets?

Tickets are still on sale for Neighbourhood, although they're selling out fast.

You can get your hands on some for £33 including booking fee from See Tickets , Ticketmaster , and Skiddle ,

You can also buy tickets for the official afterparty at Joshua Brookes , which cost £6.25 including booking fee.

You can buy up to six tickets per person.

What do I need to do on the day?

You'll need to visit the wristband exchange on the day of the event, which is open from 9.30am.

The wristband exchange will be back at the Manchester Metropolitan University Students Union building.

Your wristband will get you entry to all the venues involved in the festival, but make sure to check first as some will have age restrictions in place.

Venues also all have capacity limits, and will allow entry on a first-come, first-served basis - once they're full, they're full, so arrive in plenty of time to see your favourite artists.

Which venues are involved?

Neighbourhood tends to take over most of the music venues in the southern part of the city centre.

There are 15 involved in 2019's festival, spanning along the Oxford Road corridor.

The biggest - the Albert Hall, Manchester Academy 1, and the O2 Ritz - will host some of the major names on the setlist, while smaller under-the-radar performances will take place at the likes of Revolution Oxford Road and The Thirsty Scholar.

Once a venue hits capacity at Neighbourhood, one-in-one-out policies will be in place - so if there's a must-see band on your list, make sure you arrive in plenty of time.
