Eurovision, epic festivals, and a coronation: The best things to look forward to in 2023
In many ways, 2022 has been a difficult year. The cost of living crisis, war in Ukraine and political turmoil closer to home have caused anxiety and uncertainty for scores of people.
Snowdrops, which can be found in meadows, parks and woodland areas, signify the start of things to come. Many see the first glimmer of snowdrops, which tend to flower between January and March, as a sign that warm weather is just around the corner. And twelve points go to… Eurovision will make a welcome return to the United Kingdom this year in what is sure to be a huge occasion. Due to the ongoing Russian invasion, last year’s winner Ukraine is unable to hold the event so Liverpool is stepping up to play host.
A Manchester institution Manchester Museum will reopen its doors this year following the completion of a huge £15 million transformation project. The significance of both Empire Windrush and the birth of the NHS remains just as strong today as it did in 1948. Together, they helped create the very multiculturalism, inclusivity, and multitude of benefits we have as a country today.
Theatre classics including The Lion King, The King & I, Mamma Mia and Dirty Dancing will all be taking place across Manchester throughout the year, alongside the likes of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Six, The SpongeBob Musical, and Take That musical Greatest Days. In addition, Manchester’s new flagship art centre Factory International will open in June. Situated on the site of the former Granada TV Studios, the venue is anticipated to attract up to 1.15m visitors a year.
