The Manchester International Festival (MIF21) programme was launched last week. Despite the added complications due to Covid, it remains a truly international programme of work from performance, visual art, music, talks, residencies and more. It's all happening 1-18 July; see what's on here.

MIF has been a huge addition to the city of Manchester, culturally, socially and economically, and we are proud to be sponsoring the festival for another year, highlighting the importance of arts and culture in vibrant cities.
