United We Stream Greater Manchester

As the city-region, the nation and the world continues to battle against COVID-19, all our night-time venues have closed to help our NHS in the fight to stop the spread.
But with unified support, Greater Manchester is leading the fight back on behalf of all our restaurants, pubs, theatres and venues and will showcase our world class cultural talent with United We Stream.

Every night we will stream live bands, DJ’s, singers and performers in a UK first, to entertain, educate and enrich you in your home. United We Stream GM will be live everyday from 7pm onwards, with a donations page, where you can watch for free. All we ask is that you buy a ‘virtual ticket’ for whatever price you want, to enjoy the channel.

Launching on Friday April 3rd, United We Stream will broadcast a diverse blend of entertainment and creative content on one free online platform. Streaming live DJ-sets, live music and live performances, United We Stream will have something for everyone to enjoy while we all spend more time indoors to help the fight against COVID-19.

Pay what you feel and buy a virtual ticket and watch weekly live streams while you’re inside, with all the money raised going to support bars, clubs, pubs, venues, restaurants, performers, freelancers and cultural organisations across Greater Manchester as well as to support the fight against homelessness in Greater Manchester and to support the vital work undertaken by music therapy charity Nordoff Robbins.

Cultural Organisations, Performance Venues, Pubs/Bars, Restaurants and Individuals/Freelancers from across Greater Manchester can apply for the fund. Applications for the fund will go to a panel of local Culture and Night Time Economy leaders, where applications will be considered and money distributed.
