Walked into my hotel suite thinking it was just another cute stay… turns out it was a whole rom-com moment 😭✨

Candles, vibes, and my favourite human asking me to be his girlfriend?! I said yes before he even finished the sentence 💌💋

We love a special occasion here at Velvet.

Saturday said: one more round of summer, apparently ☀️🍻

We’ve woken up to blue skies, the sun is shining and suddenly that outdoor table is looking very tempting. Technically summer’s over… but we’re absolutely not arguing with this little encore.

Drinks in the sunshine at Velvet, anyone? 👀🥂

Five reasons Velvet just gets a Manchester city break ✨📍

Canal Street is basically your back garden, so you’re right in the middle of the action from the second you step outside. The rooms have proper personality too… bold interiors, luxe little details and spaces you’ll actually want to spend time in.

Need a drink? No taxi required. Velvet Bar is literally downstairs, ready for that first cocktail of the night. And because this definitely isn’t your average city hotel, there’s character around every corner instead of the usual copy-and-paste stay.

Then when it’s time to explore, park the taxi apps and walk. Piccadilly, the Northern Quarter, Chinatown, shopping, bars and restaurants are all close enough to make the whole weekend feel effortless.

Check in. Drop the bags. Grab a cocktail. Manchester is yours. ✨ Ready?

First day of autumn 🍂 which means cosy city stays are officially back.

Think crisp Manchester days, boutique rooms, cocktails downstairs and probably your most iconic city break yet. 😉

Autumn at Velvet just hits different. ✨

I’m really not that hard to please ☺️🫶🏻

Just tell me a date I need to be ready and I’ll start packing a suitcase now. Oh and a bottle of ch*****ne on ice would be so cute too 😉 *hint hint*

Not quite over the weekend yet 🫶🏻❤️🏳️‍🌈

A massive thank you to everyone who walked through our doors on what was a bit of a wet & wild weekend. You were loud & proud and embraced the Velvet spirit.

From takeovers and bring lots of sass and class… we had a ball. Whilst also celebrating 30 years of Velvet.

We love you. We appreciate all of you 😊

30 YEARS OF VELVET 🫶🏻✨

Where has the time gone?! August marks 30 incredible years of Velvet on Canal Street. 🖤

Three decades of late nights, long lunches, Pride weekends, packed dance floors, celebrations, questionable hairstyles, even more questionable outfits… and SO many memories. 😂

We’ve been digging through the Velvet archives and found a few gems and trust us, there are soooo many more where these came from.

To everyone who’s walked through our doors, stayed the night, danced until closing, worked behind the bar, celebrated Pride with us or simply called Velvet their favourite spot… you’re part of our story.

30 years down… and we’re nowhere near done.
Here’s to the next 30. 🥂

Thank you to everyone who has joined us this Pride. You’ve made it a very special one for us 🏳️‍🌈❤️

DAY 3 & WE’RE STILL LOUD, STILL PROUD 🌈🪩 Honestly… can these vibes just never end?! 🥹

The DJs have been ON FIRE, the atmosphere has been unreal and Canal Street is ALIVE. And trust us… we’re nowhere near done yet.

Today we go AGAIN with all the Kooky vibes, plus LIVE SAX taking over Velvet Bar from 5.30pm–7.30pm 🎷✨

Grab your favourite people, get yourselves down to Canal Street and head to your favourite bar. 😉🍾

Pride isn’t slowing down… and neither are we.

RAIN? WE DON’T CARE. 🌧️🪩🌈

The weather might be a washout, but Velvet definitely isn’t.

A HUGE line-up taking over inside all day & night. DJs, live bongos, big tunes and even bigger Pride energy. 🔥

Forget the forecast. Grab a drink and PARTY HARD at your favourite bar.

Rain outside. Velvet inside. 🌈🍸🪩
