The free fireworks and countdown party will take place on Sunday, December 31, at a new location in the city centre.
Everyone is invited to the family friendly event which will be held at Castlefield Bowl, with pedestrian access into the event area from Liverpool Road or Duke Street. The venue is known for hosting open air live music events in the summer.
Manchester council has confirmed the details of what it says will be a 'fun-filled event' with entry from 10pm. It will include a live DJ set from Hits Radio DJ Jordan Lee, a traditional time-to-hugall-your-friends countdown to midnight, followed by a huge firework display to celebrate the start of the new year in Manchester.
Revellers should note however that it is an alcohol-free event and no booze will be available to be purchased inside. Anyone attending is asked to limit any bags they bring with them to no bigger than A4 in size as bag searches will be in operation.
