What We Do.
Built Around
Your Brief.

Brand activation, sponsorship, campaigns and team building in Manchester. We don't sell a fixed menu. Tell us what you want to happen and we'll pick the right format, whether that's a season of weekly sessions, a one-off launch or a team day. Here's what that usually looks like.

First-season partners wanted. Early partners get first-season pricing and first say on renewal.

Weekly or Fortnightly

What It Is

A season of regular sessions that your brand funds and is part of. One format, a set night, run properly week after week. It could be cooking, sport, a games night or a music night, run in partner venues across Manchester.

Why It Works

A one-off gets you a headcount. A season gets you the same faces coming back, which is where trust actually comes from. It also gives you a steady flow of content and real numbers you can show your boss.

What's Included

  • Weekly or fortnightly sessions on a set night
  • Your product used in the session, not handed out at the door
  • Photo and video from sessions, yours to use
  • Attendance, sign-up and repeat numbers after each run
  • First say on renewing for the next season

Pricing

Single session sponsorship or a full season. Seasons usually £6,000 to £12,000 depending on length and format. First-season pricing is set to prove it works, then priced on results.

Brand Activations
Brand
One-Off or Series
+

What It Is

Launches, pop-ups and takeovers built around something people actually want to walk into. Planned for the build-up, the day and the days after, not just the few hours in the middle.

Why It Works

People remember the brand that helped them, not the one that got in the way. If people choose to come in, the brand becomes the good part of their day.

What's Included

  • Concept, venue, production and staffing
  • A plan for before, during and after the day
  • Content captured throughout
  • A clear, plain-numbers report at the end

Pricing

Quoted on scope. Most one-off activations sit between £3,500 and £10,000.

Campaign Ideas
BrandCulture
Brands & Charities
+

What It Is

Original concepts written for your brand or cause, then produced and run by us. A public installation, a stunt, a moment made for social, or something nobody has done before.

Why It Works

An idea that belongs to you is harder to copy and easier to talk about than another sponsored stand. It gives people a reason to share it.

What's Included

  • An original idea built around your brand and audience
  • Production, permissions and the people to run it
  • Content captured from start to finish
  • A report on what happened and what it led to

Good Fit For

Brands Wanting StandoutCharities & CausesLocal Councils & BodiesCulture & Arts
Pricing

Priced on the idea, not the hours. From £3,500 for a lean version, up to around £10,000 for a full build.

Team Building & Corporate Events
CorporateCommunity
Private Bookings
+

What It Is

Away days, team socials and client evenings that people look forward to. A cooking night, a games night, a sport session, or something built around your team and what you want from the day.

Why It Works

Most team events are forgettable because they are designed around the venue, not the people. Ours are built around getting people talking to each other.

What's Included

  • Groups from around 10 to 60
  • Venue, food, kit and hosting all handled
  • Shaped around your team and the goal of the day
  • Simple invoicing on 30-day terms

Pricing

From £45 to £70 per person depending on format, venue and whether drinks are included.

Venue Programming
Community
Co-Working, Co-Living, Cafes, Bars
+

What It Is

Regular nights for spaces with rooms that go quiet in the evening or on slow days. We bring the format, the people and often a sponsor, and you open the doors.

Why It Works

You get footfall and atmosphere without having to programme anything yourself. Residents and members get something good to do on site.

What's Included

  • Recurring nights on your quiet days
  • No programming work on your side
  • Your space in all the event marketing
  • Local makers and traders at bigger nights

Good Fit For

Co-Working SpacesCo-Living & Build to RentCafes & BarsCommunity Venues
Pricing

Usually in-kind use of the space in return for footfall and programming. We talk it through with each venue.

Community Partnerships
SportCultureCommunity
Clubs, Collectives & Groups
+

What It Is

Some of the best communities in Manchester already exist: sports clubs, music collectives, run clubs. We help brands back what they are already doing, and can run their social channels too.

Why It Works

You don't need to buy an audience when someone has already built one. Backing a group that people trust gives your brand credibility you can't get any other way.

What's Included

  • Matching brands with the right local groups
  • Sponsored sessions at lower cost to members
  • Ongoing content and channel management
  • Safeguarding and consent handled properly

Pricing

Channel work from £800 a month, or delivered as part of a wider brand-funded programme.

Before You
Book.

Can we try one session before committing to a season?

+

Yes. You can sponsor a single session first to see how it works, then move to a full season if it suits you.

What do brand partners get from a season?

+

Your brand is part of every session, your product is used in the session itself, and you get photo and video from real sessions to use on your own channels. You also get attendance, sign-up and repeat numbers after each run, all opt-in and GDPR-compliant.

Who owns the photos and videos?

+

You can use the content from your sessions in your own marketing. We agree the details, including consent from anyone in the shots, before the season starts.

How many people come to a session?

+

It depends on the format and the room. Most recurring sessions are sized so people can actually talk to each other, rather than packed out.

Do you work outside Manchester?

+

Not for now. We focus on Manchester and Greater Manchester so we can do it properly.

Can you run events at our office or venue?

+

Yes. We run sessions in co-working spaces, co-living buildings, cafes, bars and offices, as long as the space suits the format.

A Starting
Point.

These are formats that work well for recurring events. They're a starting point, not a list you have to pick from. If your idea is different, that's fine.

Food
Connect & Cook

Hands-on cooking nights in partner venues, with rotating themes and food from the cultures that make up Manchester.

Sport
Grassroots Sport

Sessions with local clubs at a lower price than usual pay-to-play, because a sponsor covers the pitch time.

Culture
Music & Social Nights

Music nights with local collectives, paint and sip, games and murder mystery nights. Easy to host, easy to come back to.
