Black History Month in Manchester

October is Black History Month in the UK. Now in its 27th year, the month celebrates Black heritage and culture.

It’s an important event that shines a light on important people and events that have had a huge impact, yet often go missed in our history. Above all, Black History Month is a time to recognise Black culture and achievement; to inspire and share the pride people have in their heritage.

Take your pick from theatre shows, talks, film screenings and family activities. There are many events happening in Manchester for Black History Month 2024.
