What’s On in July in the North West

Another busy month ahead of us – July truly shows the best of the North West. If you know or any or are arranging any events in July, please feel free to contact us so we can include them in our What’s On in the North West this July post.

I will be emailing a weekly round up of the events planned for the week ahead in my newsletter, so please consider signing up for all the events in one place. I will also be sharing North West events throughout the month over on my Facebook page, so again feel free to follow over there.

Any events that we have been invited to or sponsored to attend will be marked as #AD

ALWAYS check details with venues direct by clicking the blue links before heading out, especially opening hours and booking details. Information can change. Many events have indoor contingency plans in case of severe weather etc but always best to check beforehand.
