Manchester Photo Walk – 18th April 2026

Hosted by: Michael Freeman
Saturday 18th April 2026, 11am to 4pm

About this Photo Walk

Join us for our next PhotoClub247 meetup as we head to the vibrant streets of Manchester! We are thrilled to have local street photographer Michael Freeman hosting this walk. Michael knows Manchester inside out and is excited to show you the city’s hidden gems.

While Michael’s passion is for street photography, this walk is perfect for everyone. We’ll explore famous landmarks, but we’ll also wander off the beaten track to find unusual sites and lesser-known spots that most people walk right past. Whether you love capturing grand architecture, colourful graffiti, or the busy atmosphere of the city, there will be plenty for your lens to dive into.

What to Expect

  • A Bit of Everything: From historic buildings to the gritty, artistic vibe of Manchester’s street art.
  • Learn the Ropes: If you’re new to street photography, Michael is happy to share his favourite techniques, talk about the “rules of the road,” and suggest the best settings for your camera.
  • Friendly & Social: Just like all our walks, the main goal is to meet your online friends and enjoy a day out with people who love photography as much as you do!

We’ll finish the session by finding a local spot to grab a drink, rest our feet, and share our favourite images from the day.
