Description:
The Manchester ladies social can be found here from 8pm each Wednesday.

Iconic is a cosy bar tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Canal Street on the adjacent Richmond Street.

It used to be a hair salon that is now known as a friendly bar with an impressively well-stocked spirits collection, particularly when it comes to gin as they have up to 150 in stock at times). All of their drinks are reaosnably priced.

The staff team and owner are very supportive of our trans community, are chilled and relaxed and everyone is friendly and chatty. You will be very welcome here and not judged in any way.

The Decor is warm and cosy, the music is gentle background music with no DJ's or drag acts most nights though there is ‘Monday night madness’ SpeedQuizzing and Thursday night bingo. On most nights it is a good place to come and sit, relax with friends and have a chat together.

It is one of the nicer bars in the area but also one of the lesser known bars too so be different and give it a try.

Manchester Wednesday Night Out: Chilled social evening
Other Social Gathering

Open from 8pm to
Wednesday 2nd April

Our Manchester Wednesday social evening is centred on meeting between 8pm to 11pm in Iconic Bar at 29 Richmond Street M1 3NB. We get 10% off drinks here so if you are a regular visitor ask at the bar for our discount card.

There are usually around 20ish but not all are always in Iconic bar at the same time as people drift in and out through the evening. The ladies present will vary from first time out socially to full time experienced and everything in between, both locals and visitors from around the country. Everyone will be friendly and approachable but if you are alone or new, ask for me when you get here and I will introduce you to everyone. If you come and sit on the edge of the group without asking for me I will assume you want privacy so I won't interrupt you. If you need support I am happy to come and meet you at your hotel or car.

During the daytime I will be wandering around Manchester centre and/or local towns, if you want to join me please just ask, between 5pm to 8pm I will eat in a bar type place in a non-scene part of town such as Northern Quarter, Deansgate or St Peters Square area, if you want to join me you are welcome, just ask me.

I get asked if the non-LGB places I go to are "trans friendly"..... in my personal experience if we behave and dress sensibly and stay alert to risk we are at no greater risk of violence than that which cisgender women have to manage in their daily lives from VAWG (violence against women and girls) but if you don't want to leave the village you will usually find some of our ladies out in either Velvet or Via before 8pm.

When Iconic closes at 11pm I will leave the village again, you are welcome to join me if you wish, if you prefer to stay in the village then popular locations to go to at that time are; The Goose, New York New York, Eva, Via, Oscar's, The Brewers, BarPop .... there is also Centre Stage but as I am am barred from there I obviously will not give it any recommendation so that is your choice.

If you don’t know Manchester check TV Chix venues for insights as it is where I keep the Manchester clubs, bars, restaurants, hotel and parking information up to date, just search TV Chix venues using “Manchester”. Ask me if you want deeper insights or want to know about anywhere not listed as I will either know it or I can check it out for you.

Men are welcome to join us but please come as a guest of one of the Ladies attending so you have someone to introduce you to everyone. We ask all men to be polite and respectful to the ladies because we are a social group, not a knocking shop.

Any questions not answered in the above just ask me. Why not come if you can while you can as Old Father Time has his eye on us all.

What a lovely evening, I met the group in the Iconic Bar and was welcomed and introduce to the girls. Everyone was so friendly and I felt included in the the group from the first minute. Lovely bar and easy going Bar staff.

Then some of use headed off to Via, to watch( dance) the Drag Queen, great fun... I ended up at New York night club and Eva..

What a fab night and it's comforting making the connection with Alison and the group as there is always a friendly face when your our around the Village. Alison is a lovely and friendly host and is happy to help you throughout the night.

I'm looking forward to my next visit...
