Amy Toole, Director at Pop Up Entertainment says: “It’s been so long since we’ve been able to perform that we’re really focused on creating something special for our return. Live theatre has been put on hold over the last few months and it’s time to bring it back with a twist!
There’s nobody else in Manchester doing drive in performances at the moment and it’s completely unique, an experience for all ages. To say thank you to our incredible NHS we are dedicating this evening to them and asking them to come along free of charge with their families and friends. All of our performers have volunteered their time and we’ve worked hard to provide something special.”
Park N Party at EventCity has three screens the size of double decker buses, a campervan full of snacks and refreshments and toilets for public use that are cleaned regularly to ensure the safety of each visitor.
