Manchester to host 'love event' with romantic spots for proposals over Valentine's week
A special 'love festival' filled with music, poetry and picture-perfect spots for romantic proposals and insta selfies is being planned in the centre of Manchester for Valentine's Day. The free event will run across four days in February including Valentine's Day itself on February 14 at Spinningfields.
It will bring a huge neon sign to illuminate the area with a well known mix of five words that will "mean something different to everyone and provide the perfect picture backdrop", alongside some of the area’s other permanent light installations. Bosses of the business district say the lights will all be turning a lovely shade of red for the occasion too.Those in attendance will be welcomed by a very special host and guided to the starting point located under a Heart Arch .
As part of the experience, Spinningfields will be bringing together businesses in the area to create a "simply perfect proposal package" and offering couples the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enter a competition to win, with details set to be announced on its social media accounts. "We spread the love as much as we can, and previous Valentine's Days at Spinningfields have seen us install a monumental, six-metre, inflatable heart by French artist Franck Pelletier, which generated the heartbeat of the city. We also had an iconic, huge, illuminated heart in collaboration with artist Stuart Langley, that was displayed on one of the city’s tallest commercial office buildings, No.1 Spinningfields.
