Ariana Grande and Years & Years to headline Manchester Pride Live at Mayfield

Grammy and Brit Award winner and honorary Mancunian, Ariana Grande, will return to Manchester to headline Manchester Pride Live at Depot, Mayfield this August bank holiday.

The singer will join a stellar line up including British synth-pop band Years & Years and 80’s duo Bananarama as she performs a selection of songs from her Sweetener World Tour at the new live element of the Manchester Pride Festival, held at Mayfield.

Plus Chelcee Grimes, Becky Hill, Liberty X, Louisa, Youngr, Pixie Lott, Four of Diamonds and transgender German singer songwriter Kim Petras will perform over the weekend.

Mark Fletcher CEO says “This year marks a big change for the festival as it continues to evolve. Previously we had one event running over the weekend and this year we have two, each with a distinct offering. At Manchester Pride Live we’re truly honoured to be welcoming Ariana back to the city to help us celebrate LGBT+ life. My team and I have worked hard to create a diverse lineup of performers who will join her in helping us continue to make a difference to the lives of LGBT+ people and celebrate the unity that exists in our brilliant city.”

James Heather, Development Director for U+I, said: “We’re delighted to be working with Manchester Pride on this year’s event and opening our doors to a whole new audience of local, national and international visitors. The Manchester Pride take-over follows a number of amazing events we’ve held here and is part of our strategy of ensuring local communities can make the most out of our sites while we bring our plans forward.”
