Bittersweet Home, the Manchester-based event team known for their celebrations of the city’s music and culture, is returning to Salford Lads Club with a two-day fundraising event to help secure the future of this beloved community venue.

With the club’s financial target set at £250,000, Bittersweet Home has set their sights on rallying fans and locals to pitch in through a blend of unique events, musical memorabilia, and a live Q&A with a Manchester music legend.

“After seeing the overwhelming support at our Together We’ll Fly event in June, where we broke records for Salford Lads Club’s donations, it was an easy decision to come back when they asked for help,” said Kyle Dale, Director of Bittersweet Home.

“We love a challenge, and with just two weeks to prepare, we’re ready to give everything we’ve got to make this weekend something unforgettable.

“We’ve got incredible Manchester memorabilia, a lineup of local talent, and of course, a rare chance to meet Tony McCarroll, founding member and drummer of Oasis.”
