The Super Duper Family Festival

18th February 2026

About this shoot

Manchester's city centre transformed into a giant playground during February half-term, with themed zones across St Ann's Square, Exchange Square, Printworks and beyond. Brand partnerships with Bluey, Gladiators and CBeebies brought extra magic, while 99% of those surveyed rated their experience as excellent or good. A joyful, free festival that gave families a brilliant reason to visit the city.
