Manchester's cultural calendar is packed full of new and exciting openings for 2023, so it's no wonder that all eyes are on the city as it prepares to launch a number of landmark venues.
Over the last year, the city's cultural institutions, as well as it's trendy neighbourhoods, have landed it many world's best lists - even before they've opened - and in 2023 we're hitting the ground running with another top-tier mention - this time in Time Out magazine's 23 Best Things to Do in in the World in 2023.
Sitting amongst attractions such as Iceland's hot springs, film festivals in Buenos Aires and the world's largest anime store in Tokyo, Manchester's hotly anticipated £210m Factory International comes in at number 9 under the headline 'visit a new blockbuster art venue'.
