In association with Manchester Histories, and ahead of the 2018 Manchester Histories Festival which takes place across venues in Manchester city centre from 7-11 June, City Co are bringing together a panel of experts to discuss the significant dates in history and the radical events and conversations that have shaped Manchester into the city we know today.
We’ll look at how the city and its venues are marking the dates in history that have major anniversaries in 2018/19. How is the city commemorating 100 years of suffrage in 2018, the WW1 centenary 2018 and 200 years since Peterloo in 2019, to name but a few.
