Street food festival, Wimbledon picnic and pop-up Pride to take place at MediaCity this summer

MediaCity is gearing up for a busy summer on its waterside piazza after announcing a series of free summer pop-up events. Running throughout July and August, visitors can expect everything from free yoga classes and special Wimbledon picnics to Pop-Up Pride activities.

Following the launch of Box on the Docks, an outdoor dining concept in partnership with Seven Bro7hers, this past weekend, which offers a rotating programme of independent food and drink vendors, MediaCity have decided to extend the fun with a series of free events for all the family. From tasty authentic gyros to boozy ice cream, they'll be serving up the best pop-ups Salford and Manchester have to offer with an aim to give a platform to emerging and established local brands.

Josie Cahill, MediaCity’s Creative Director said of the summer programme: “There’s a real buzz of excitement as we open MediaCity to another summer season working with local partners to bring independent food and drink pop ups and free events for all to enjoy. We’re thrilled to be partnering with Seven Bro7hers this year for Box on the Docks, as well as bringing a host of events across the summer which build towards We Invented the Weekend, a new festival for MediaCity and Salford Quays and our most ambitious event to date.”
