Pin-up, a unique 1950’s-themed pop-up venue featuring four full-size ten pin bowling lanes, an American diner, a cocktail bar and a dancefloor with an eclectic genre-smashing music policy.
Evolving from a cult London night and emerging as the world’s first fully pop-up boutique bowling alley, Pin-up’s eight-week debut at Hardman Square promises a whole host of exciting entertainment, from bowling, music, mouth watering food and irresistible cocktails, to magicians, dancers, themed nights, and regular collaborations with local promoters. Some of the UK’s most inspiring DJ’s will also be dropping in to play the 400 capacity temporary space, and original Pin-up residents will be on hand throughout to ensure the music flows as easily as the cocktails and strikes.
Pin-up opens for lunch and closes late 7 days a week. The venue can also be hired out for corporate meetings or events.
Fran Goddard, Head of Communications & Events at Spinningfields, said; “Spinningfields is synonymous with first-class events and is the perfect fit for Pin-up in Manchester. As the summer nights start drawing in, Pin-up will provide people with the perfect pick-me-up and something a little different to do. Pin-up is an exciting concept and will add to the diverse offering already in place at Spinningfields.”
Phil Dawson owner of Pin-Up told us “It’s always been a dream of mine to take Pin-up on the road and I’m really excited to see it finally happen. To be able to combine my love of music, diners and bowling is just amazing.”
