Stone Roses legend Mani has announced further details about the huge Manchester fundraising ball that he and wife Imelda are organising in a bid to raise thousands of pounds for charities close to the couple's hearts. Mani and Imelda have had the support of a host of famous faces with incredible donations for a special auction on the night as well as star performers since announcing the event on November 18.
Curated by Manchester music legend Gary "Mani" Mounfield and his wife, DJ Agent Imelda, the event promises a night of first-class entertainment with live music, DJs, and surprise guests. There will also be the opportunity to win lots of raffle prizes donated by bands, footballers, actors, venues and promoters to raise cash for cancer charities after Imelda's diagnosis with cancer.
Hosted by musician, writer and broadcaster John Robb, the event will also be the launch of an online auction featuring an incredible collection of memorabilia, holidays and rare collector's items. That includes Manchester United legend David Beckham donating signed boots, Noel Gallagher and Johnny Marr both donating signed gold discs, while Mani's Stone Roses bandmate John Squire is donating a hand-painted guitar.
