Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EPRNM1 - A tattooed female fire performer entertains crowds at Warrington Pride 2026, breathing a dramatic plume of flame while holding a second burning torch. She wears a vivid fringed costume in red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple, echoing the colours of the LGBTQ+ Pride flag. Her bright red hair, expressive pose and visible body art add to the theatrical character of the performance. A Warrington Pride banner stands behind her beside the Cookhouse outdoor seating at Time Square, firmly locating the scene within the town-centre celebration.
Warrington Pride took place on Saturday 13 June 2026, bringing a programme of performances, community activity and a parade into central Warrington. Participants gathered at Time Square before the parade travelled through the town centre towards Golden Square and Old Market Square. The event celebrated Warrington's LGBTQIA+ community and welcomed residents, visitors, charities, businesses, community groups and allies.
The photograph captures live street entertainment, Pride visibility and the use of public space for an inclusive community festival. Fire eating is a specialist circus and sideshow performance involving controlled flames, trained technique and strict safety measures. The moment shown creates a striking contrast between the orange fire, rainbow costume and brick architecture of the regenerated Time Square development.
This image is suitable for editorial coverage of LGBTQ+ rights, Pride Month, lesbian and gay visibility, transgender and non-binary inclusion, equality, diversity, community cohesion, public festivals, female performers, tattoo culture, circus skills, town-centre events and visitor attractions. It also reflects the celebratory and defiant role of Pride at a time when LGBTQ+ communities continue to campaign against discrimination and for equal treatment, safety and public acceptance.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ11R9 - Rembrandt, also known as Rem Bar, on the corner of Canal Street and Sackville Street in Manchester's Gay Village, photographed during warm summer weather with busy pavement seating, people queuing at the entrance, rainbow flags, bunting and relaxed outdoor hospitality. The scene captures one of the long-established venues in the city's queer quarter, with the pub and hotel overlooking the lively streets around Sackville Gardens. The Rembrandt's own website gives its location as 33 Sackville Street, M1 3LZ, and describes it as a community pub in the heart of the Gay Village, while Visit Manchester and other listings also place it at the same address. The image is useful for editorial coverage of LGBTQ+ tourism, Pride weekends, inclusive travel, European short breaks, hospitality spending, nightlife, pub culture, city-centre regeneration, visitor economy and the commercial importance sometimes described as the pink pound . The wide crop shows the relationship between the bar frontage, public street, outdoor tables, passing pedestrians, nearby trees and surrounding red-brick city architecture, making it suitable for features on Manchester as a destination for gay, queer and LGBTQ+ travellers as well as friends, couples, locals and tourists enjoying a weekend city break. Manchester's Gay Village has major cultural significance in UK LGBTQ+ history, with venues such as the Rembrandt, New Union and Canal Street bars providing social spaces, entertainment and visibility over many decades. The photograph appears to have been taken in bright daylight under blue sky, with summer clothing, leafy trees and busy open-air seating suggesting warm-weather leisure. It can illustrate Pride season, inclusive nightlife, urban tourism, bar terraces, drag and cabaret culture, safe social spaces, hospitality recovery, tourism marketing, city branding and the continuing draw of Canal Street as one of Britain's best-known queer districts

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ1210 - The Church on Canal Street in Manchester Gay Village during warm summer weather, with outdoor tables, customers, pedestrians and colourful Pride-style bunting creating a lively hospitality setting. The photograph captures one of the best-known nightlife and LGBTQ+ leisure areas in Manchester city centre, where bars, clubs, restaurants and cafés line the pedestrian-friendly canal-side streets around Canal Street, Chorlton Street and Richmond Street. The Church, formerly known as Churchills, is a long-established gay village venue at 37 Chorlton Street, close to Canal Street and Sackville Gardens, and is promoted as part of the area's drag, karaoke and community bar scene. The image is useful for editorial features about Manchester Pride, LGBTQ+ tourism, inclusive city breaks, outdoor drinking, the evening economy, hospitality, nightlife, public realm, urban leisure, visitor spending and the continuing cultural importance of queer spaces in UK cities. The visible rainbow bunting, pavement seating, groups of friends, warm-weather clothing and relaxed social atmosphere make the picture especially suitable for stories about summer leisure, Pride weekend, city-centre footfall, licensed premises, tourism recovery, safe social spaces, community visibility and the balance between residents, visitors and late-night venues in a fast-developing city centre. Canal Street has been central to Manchester's gay village identity for decades and remains strongly associated with LGBTQ+ rights, entertainment, nightlife, activism, music, drag performance and celebration. The scene appears to be photographed in bright daylight under leafy trees, with people enjoying drinks, conversation and passing footfall along the street. No single person dominates the frame, so the emphasis remains on place, atmosphere, hospitality culture and the everyday visibility of Manchester's LGBTQ+ quarter.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJD0BR - Grey T-shirt on a wooden hanger printed with the phrase The Mancunian Gay in bold white lettering inside a red rounded rectangle, a playful visual echo of the famous Manchester Mancunian Way name and a clear celebration of queer Mancunian identity. The photograph appears to show the shirt in an indoor retail, gallery, museum or cultural display setting, surrounded by bright graphic prints and poster-style artwork. The simple slogan, casual clothing and close framing make the image useful for stories about Manchester LGBTQ+ culture, queer visibility, Pride merchandise, local humour, regional identity, independent design, souvenir fashion, slogan T-shirts, inclusive city branding and the commercial language of place. The red, white and grey design is strong, readable and minimal, placing all attention on the wordplay and the relationship between being Mancunian and being gay. Manchester has one of the UK's best-known LGBTQ+ scenes, centred around Canal Street and the Gay Village, and the phrase works well for editorial use connected with Pride events, city breaks, LGBTQ+ tourism, social inclusion, community belonging, identity politics, fashion retail, graphic design and northern England culture. The visible surrounding prints add extra context of pop-cultural and queer-themed display, while the neutral indoor lighting and clean composition keep the focus on the garment rather than any person. The image can illustrate how humour, fashion and civic pride are used to express belonging in modern British cities, especially in places where local identity is strongly tied to music, nightlife, activism, sport, working-class wit and creative independence. It may also suit features about LGBTQ+ rights, inclusive retail, representation in public culture, Manchester souvenirs, Pride shopping, youth identity, student culture, design-led gifts and the way everyday clothing can turn a political or social message into a wearable statement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJD0J5 - Molly House mural on Richmond Street in Manchester's Gay Village, centred on painted portraits of Quentin Crisp and Alan Turing. The wall sits beside one of the area's best-known LGBTQ+ bars, close to Canal Street and the city centre's nightlife, Pride and queer heritage quarter. Crisp's stylised face, with hat, pale hair and carefully theatrical expression, brings in the history of queer self-invention, camp visibility and public defiance. Turing's portrait adds a sharper Manchester connection: the mathematician and codebreaker worked at the University of Manchester after the Second World War, helped shape early computing, and has become a major figure in British LGBTQ+ history because of the state persecution he suffered after his conviction for homosexual acts. Together, the two faces turn a side wall into a public act of remembrance, identity and urban storytelling.
The mural's composition is bright and theatrical, with pink cloud shapes, a yellow bird graphic, pastel colour blocks and the readable words PRIVATE PARKING painted beside the figures. It is not a formal monument or blue-plaque view, but everyday city street art, mixing portraiture, advertising, wall texture and a back-lane setting. The artwork is part of a living leisure district, not a sealed heritage display. It sits among bars, service yards and late-night footfall, where debates about safety and commercial change remain visible. No sky is visible, so the weather and season are not clear, but the even outdoor light and slightly damp-looking ground give the picture the feel of a cool urban day rather than a staged heritage view. The image has strong editorial use for features on Manchester Gay Village, LGBTQ+ history, public art, Alan Turing, Quentin Crisp, Pride culture, queer spaces, nightlife, urban regeneration, equality, memory, identity and the way unofficial city walls can carry cultural history as powerfully as museums or civic statues.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E91EFX - Editorial close-up of a handheld Socialist Worker placard reading Trans Rights Now, photographed at a protest in Liverpool, England. The sign uses the blue, pink and white colours associated with trans visibility and liberation messaging, and is presented as a strong, direct piece of campaign communication within a public demonstration setting. This image is useful for editorial themes around transgender rights, LGBT activism, grassroots protest, civil rights campaigning, left wing politics, public dissent, equality movements and the role of placards and slogans in modern street politics. The clear wording and recognisable Socialist Worker branding give the photograph additional value for stories about socialist participation in UK protest movements, coalition activism, campaign organising and responses to political or media hostility towards trans people. Because the composition is tight and message-led, the image works particularly well for newspapers, magazines, online features and opinion pieces needing a concise visual shorthand for trans rights mobilisation rather than a broad crowd scene. It is also commercially useful for searches linked to protest signage, activism photography, political communication, campaign materials, gender identity debate, human rights, demonstration culture and contemporary British street politics. The Liverpool reference adds regional relevance for coverage of Merseyside activism and North West England protest culture, while the polished graphic design of the placard makes the image visually striking and immediately legible in thumbnail search results. The picture can illustrate discussions of solidarity, inclusion, public campaigning, social movements, freedom of expression and the continuing use of simple printed placards as one of the most effective tools of political messaging. It has a documentary, real-world character rather than a staged studio feel, which strengthens its editorial value for current affairs, social issues.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E26WRM - Street art mural in Liverpool city centre, Merseyside, England, depicting two kissing mermaids painted on a weathered brick wall. The image shows a colourful piece of urban graffiti or mural art with flowing hair, intertwined tails and a romantic, fantasy-inspired composition, blending mermaid mythology with contemporary street art aesthetics. The painted figures are rendered in pastel and jewel tones against an aged wall surface, giving the work texture, character and a slightly faded documentary feel. This makes the photograph highly suitable for themes such as public art, urban creativity, mural culture, fantasy imagery, romance, LGBTQ-friendly interpretation, female figures, outsider art, bohemian city culture and the visual transformation of neglected spaces through art. The composition also works well for searches around graffiti, wall painting, city centre artwork, creative districts, tourism, alternative culture and the expressive use of colour in the built environment.
Liverpool has a strong reputation for independent creativity, music, nightlife, popular culture and street-level artistic expression, and this mural fits well within that wider city identity. The image is useful for editorial, documentary and commercial uses connected to street art, travel, city breaks, Merseyside tourism, urban regeneration, cultural quarters, artistic communities and the role of murals in shaping local character. It can also support broader themes such as fantasy art in public spaces, mermaid symbolism, love and intimacy, contemporary illustration styles, women in art, decorative murals, brick wall textures, alternative Liverpool, youthful city culture and everyday encounters with unexpected artwork in northern England. With its hand-painted look, vivid subject matter and strong vertical framing, the photograph has good search value for Liverpool street art, mermaid mural, city centre graffiti, wall art, romantic urban art and creative public space in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EM2JE2 - Black-and-white street-art portrait celebrates Dublin DJ Karen Reddy and her 30-year association with The George, one of the city's best-known LGBTQ+ venues. Painted directly onto a dark brick wall near Dame Street and Temple Bar, the mural shows Karen smiling beside the words No Requests Babes and 30 Years of DJ Karen . The monochrome face contrasts with a narrow strip of bright yellow paint at the edge of the composition, while the brick texture gives the work a strong urban and documentary character.
Karen Reddy began her residency at The George in September 1993 and became closely identified with the venue's dancefloor, drag shows and queer nightlife. Her sets have ranged from pop remixes and singalong favourites to funky house and electro-house, with Tuesday and Sunday appearances among her established nights. The phrase No Requests Babes reflects the humour and authority of a long-serving club DJ managing a busy dancefloor and unwanted song requests.
Her career developed alongside major social change in Ireland. Karen started at The George during the year male homosexual activity was decriminalised, and her three decades behind the decks span expanding LGBTQ+ visibility, Pride culture, civil partnership and marriage equality. She has also performed at other Dublin clubs and events, including Spirit, Wax, Rogue, The Dragon, Mother and Sweatbox, as well as festivals such as Electric Picnic and Love Sensation.
The mural is suitable for editorial coverage of Dublin street art, women DJs, nightclub culture, LGBTQ+ history, queer safe spaces, music careers, club residencies, public portraiture and the cultural life of the Temple Bar and Dame Street district. It records a local nightlife personality whose music and presence became part of The George's identity for generations of customers, visitors, performers and members of Dublin's LGBTQ+ community

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6G4 - The exterior of Thompson's Bar, a prominent LGBTQ+ bar situated in Manchester's Gay Village, photographed at 23 Sackville Street, Manchester M1 3NJ. The venue is located close to the Canal Street area, which has been central to Manchester's LGBTQ+ social life for several decades and is internationally recognised as one of the UK's most visible and established gay districts.
The building façade features bold, colourful signage incorporating rainbow imagery, symbolising inclusivity and LGBTQ+ pride. Decorative lighting and hanging baskets contribute to the bar's lively street presence, reflecting the area's role in Manchester's night-time economy and cultural identity.
Manchester's Gay Village has played an important role in the city's social history, activism and visibility for LGBTQ+ communities, particularly from the late twentieth century onwards. Venues such as Thompson's Bar continue to function as social hubs, meeting places and cultural landmarks within the city centre.
Photographed in daylight with urban surroundings visible, the image documents both the physical streetscape of Sackville Street and the wider cultural significance of LGBTQ+ venues within contemporary Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4PT - Long descriptive narrative, under 1,990 characters, no URLs, 1,932 chars:
Green Islington People's Plaque to Derek Jarman on the exterior of a building in Islington, north London. The circular plaque commemorates Derek Jarman, 1942 to 1994, and identifies him as an artist, film director and queer activist, recording that he lived at this address between 1967 and 1969. Photographed close up against a pale wall, the image is a strong editorial subject for stories about LGBTQ history, queer activism, British film culture, London heritage plaques, public commemoration and the cultural legacy of one of the most influential and unconventional creative figures of late twentieth-century Britain. Jarman is widely associated with radical independent cinema, experimental art, music videos, stage design, political campaigning and outspoken activism around gay rights and HIV/AIDS awareness. The plaque's wording and clean composition make the photograph especially useful for editorial coverage of LGBT History Month, Pride, heritage trails, London tourism, Islington landmarks, public history projects and the visibility of queer lives in the urban landscape. It also works well for features on memorial plaques, cultural geography, artists' former homes, the social history of Islington and the ways local authorities mark important residents through permanent public signage. Because the plaque uses the phrase queer activist , the image has added relevance for discussions of identity, language, representation and the recognition of LGBTQ contribution within mainstream civic memory. Commercially, the picture is suitable for newspapers, magazines, educational material, travel guides, history websites, biographies and features about Derek Jarman's films, art, politics and continuing influence on British culture. It is also well suited to pieces on London's queer heritage trail, cultural memory, creative activism and the importance of visible civic recognition for LGBTQ public figures

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E8PTR2 - Editorial live music photograph of Bella Podpadec of Dream Wife performing with bass guitar at Future Yard, Birkenhead, on 2 November 2024 during the band's Social Lubrication tour. Podpadec is shown kneeling on the stage in a dramatic performance pose, holding the bass upright under vivid pink and magenta concert lighting, with drum kit, microphone, LED panels, stage cables and black backdrop visible around the compact live venue setting. The image captures the physical energy and theatricality of a small venue rock show, where the closeness of the stage, lighting wash and visible equipment give the scene an immediate documentary feel.
Dream Wife are a London-based English-Icelandic rock band associated with punk, pop punk, indie rock, feminist punk energy and sharp live performance. Current band references list Rakel Mjöll on vocals, Alice Go on guitar and vocals, Bella Podpadec on bass and vocals, with Alex Paveley on drums, while Lucky Number Music identifies Podpadec as bassist and notes their they/them pronouns. The Future Yard date is listed as a 2 November 2024 Dream Wife show, with the set beginning with Social Lubrication , connecting this image strongly to the Social Lubrication album tour period.
The photograph is suitable for editorial coverage of Dream Wife, Bella Podpadec, UK tour dates, Merseyside live music, Birkenhead venues, independent music spaces, feminist punk, queer music, contemporary alternative rock, concert reviews, music journalism and gig culture. It also works well for broader themes around women and non-binary musicians in rock, grassroots venues, Liverpool City Region culture, touring bands, stagecraft, bass performance and the continuing audience for energetic, politically aware guitar music. Future Yard's role as a multi-use live music space and artist hub in Birkenhead adds further regional and cultural relevance for local music features

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RX1858 - This image shows the former marketplace area in Warrington town centre decorated with large rainbow-coloured canopy panels in preparation for a Pride event. The bright fabric strips are suspended above communal seating and tables, transforming the covered public space into a visually striking symbol of LGBTQ inclusion, diversity, and celebration. Members of the public can be seen using the space beneath the colourful installation, reinforcing its role as an everyday civic environment adapted for a community event.
Warrington, a large town in Cheshire, has in recent years invested in town-centre regeneration and the reimagining of public spaces to support events, social activity, and local identity. Pride celebrations form part of a wider programme of cultural events across towns and cities in the UK, promoting visibility, equality, and support for LGBTQ communities while drawing people into shared urban spaces.
The image captures themes of Pride, inclusivity, community life, and the evolving use of traditional market areas within British town centres. It is suitable for editorial and commercial use relating to LGBTQ Pride events, diversity and inclusion, civic space, urban regeneration, community gatherings, and contemporary social culture in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTF49Y - Saltaire United Reformed Church (originally Saltaire Congregational Church) is a church at Saltaire, West Yorkshire, England. Commissioned and paid for by Titus Salt in the mid 19th century, the church is a Grade I listed building and sits within the Saltaire World Heritage Site.
When Titus Salt, a devoted member of the Congregational church, commenced the design and construction of his model village at Saltaire, a Congregational church was the first public building commissioned. Salt donated the land and paid for the cost of the church himself, a cost of £16,000 (equivalent to £1,713,080 in 2021).
The church was designed, as was the rest of Saltaire, by the Bradford-based architect partnership of Lockwood and Mawson in the Italianate Classical style. Local firms were used for the works. The firm of John Ives did the woodwork and carvings while Moulton Brothers undertook the masonry work.
Since 1972 the church has been known as Saltaire United Reformed Church following the merger of Congregational Church in England and Wales and the Presbyterian Church of England.
The ceiling of the church was badly damaged and partially collapsed due to being affected by Storm Dennis in February 2020

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy TRN0YW - Aberdeen 2019 has been transformed into a vibrant and colourful artistic experience thanks to the return of an annual festival.
More than 100 artists are taking part in the Look Again Festival, which takes advantage of vacant or underused areas of the city and runs until June 16.
Among the highlights of this year's event, the fifth since it was launched, include a Colosseum-inspired colourful installation at the Castlegate and a virtual reality experience in Marischal Quad.
Another major attraction is The Bill Gibb Line, presented by Aberdeen-based writer Shane Strachan.
Gibb was the son of an Aberdeenshire farmer who took the fashion world by storm, with Elizabeth Taylor, Bianca Jagger, and Sandie Shaw wearing his designs in the 1970s.
Look Again co-director Sally Reaper said: In this, our fifth year, Look Again lasts longer and extends further than ever before.
With amazing participation from well over 100 artists, designers, makers, writers and performers, we really feel we are showing what a great creative community we have right here in the north-east.
We are so pleased to be highlighting this wealth of talent.
Our 2019 programme is bold and ambitious, outward-looking and connected, and we are delighted at the collaborations and partnerships that have emerged and continue to grow through Look Again.
An extensive series of talks, workshops and events will also give opportunities to learn more about the work of the participating artists and the creative industries in the north-east.
Launched in 2015, Look Again is now part of Gray's School of Art at Robert Gordon University (RGU) and also holds events throughout the year.
Libby Curtis, head of the art school, said: Look Again is fully committed to supporting the growth and development of Aberdeen's incredible creative industry “ support it critically needs in order to maintain its robust cultural offering but also to retain the fantastic artistic talent we have here in the north-east.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RPGEFB - M Nairn & Co Ltd were the firm of Michael Nairn, specialising in floor-cloths, power looms and linoleum.
And according to that excellent site Grace's Guide to British Industrial History at the 1862 Exhibition in London and the 1867 Paris Exhibition Nairns Floorcloth came into its own and won the prizes.
In 1870 Nairn and Co built a six-storey factory in Kirkcaldy and by 1877 with the introduction of linoleum, Kirkcaldy soon became the largest producer of the new floorcovering in the world.
In the 1920s the family joined forces with a supplier in Erie, Pennsylvania, which manufactured a three-foot wide simulated wood grain product used to border area rugs and linoleum.
This product was known as Congoleum, because the asphalt materials used to make it came from the Belgian Congo in Africa.
The new company called itself Congoleum-Nairn.
Congoleum-Nairn continued to sell Congoleum Gold Seal Rugs and Nairn linoleum through the late 1930's, until its researchers started experimenting with a new material called vinyl.
However, further research into developing vinyl flooring was interrupted when World War II began.
Following the war, the company continued to grow in the rapidly expanding housing market of that period.
2008 Forbo-Nairn is now the UK's only linoleum manufacturer. Forbo-Nairn have their own website.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5D0 - Manchester's famous Canal Street is now home to the largest LGBT piece of street art in the UK. The multi-coloured makeover took a little more than a week of hard work on the side of The Molly House on Richmond Street to be finished.
Organised by Queerchester, which lobbies and fundraises for arts and culture initiatives in the gay village, the project saw the entries of the street art competition winners Glenn Jones (the overall winner), Lauren Jo Kelly, Adam Pryce and Mark Wallis become bigger than they could ever have imagined with the help of renowned graffiti artists Aylo (Hayley Garner) and Cbloxx (Joy Gilleard). Over 950 online votes and 7 judges chose between 29 brilliantly creative entries to pick the winners.
The mural depicts five famous faces who are considered to be LGBT icons, two of which are very well known around Manchester's gay scene
legendary drag queens Anna Phylactic (top) and Foo Foo Lammar (top right). The others are feminist Emmeline Pankhurst (top left), writer Quentin Crisp (bottom left) and scientist Alan Turing (bottom right). Lauren Jo Kelly designed Anna while Glenn Jones created the other four. Adam Pryce's cute critters in the top left above the rainbow and Mark Wallis' naked man below it complete the work of art.
If you've been around the village during the last week or so you may have seen the mural, which was done using spray paint instead of brushes, in progress. Have you been to see it and what are your thoughts? Would you like to see more art like this around Canal Street and the rest of Manchester? We certainly would!
You can read more about Queerchester and its aim for more arts around Canal Street on their Facebook page and for more images from throughout the competition and of the mural as it unfolded.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5HA - Canal Street, the centre of the Manchester Gay Village, is a street in Manchester city centre in North West England. The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer “ get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5RM - Canal Street, the centre of the Manchester Gay Village, is a street in Manchester city centre in North West England. The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer “ get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM8B - Brighton is a seaside resort on the south coast of England that is part of the city of Brighton and Hove, located 47 miles (76 km) south of London.
Brighton's location has made it a popular destination for tourists, renowned for its diverse communities, quirky shopping areas, large cultural, music and arts scene and its large LGBT population, leading to its recognition as the unofficial gay capital of the UK. Brighton attracted 7.5 million day visitors in 2015/16 and 4.9 million overnight visitors, and is the most popular seaside destination in the UK for overseas tourists. Brighton has also been called the UK's hippest city, and the happiest place to live in the UK
In 1985, the Borough Council described three myths about Brighton's economy. Common beliefs were that most of the working population commuted to London every day
that tourism provided most of Brighton's jobs and income
or that the borough's residents were composed entirely of wealthy theatricals and retired businesspeople rather than workers. Brighton has been an important centre for commerce and employment since the 18th century. It is home to several major companies, some of which employ thousands of people locally
as a retail centre it is of regional importance
creative, digital and new media businesses are increasingly significant
and, although Brighton was never a major industrial centre, its railway works contributed to Britain's rail industry in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly in the manufacture of steam locomotives.
Since the amalgamation of Brighton and Hove, economic and retail data has been produced at a citywide level only. Examples of statistics include: Brighton and Hove's tourism industry contributes £380m to the economy and employs 20,000 people directly or indirectly
the city has 9,600 registered companies
and a 2001 report identified it as one of five supercities for the future. In the past couple of years tourists to Brighton and Hove have fallen.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM8T - The Royal Pavilion, also known as the Brighton Pavilion, is a Grade I listed former royal residence located in Brighton, England. Beginning in 1787, it was built in three stages as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, who became the Prince Regent in 1811. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century. The current appearance of the Pavilion, with its domes and minarets, is the work of architect John Nash, who extended the building starting in 1815.
The purchase of the Royal Pavilion from Queen Victoria, by Brighton, marked the beginnings of the site's attraction as a tourist destination. The Royal Pavilion has been changed from a private residence to a public attraction under civic ownership. Today, around 400,000 people visit the Royal Pavilion annually. General filming and photography is not permitted inside the Royal Pavilion. Many of the items in the palace are on loan, in particular from HM The Queen, and one condition of the loans is that the items cannot be photographed or reproduced without prior written permission.
The Royal Pavilion is licensed as a venue for weddings. On 29 March 2014, the Royal Pavilion was host to one of a number of the first legal same-sex marriages to take place in the United Kingdom following the passage of the 2013 Same Sex Couples Act.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM9B - Brighton Fringe is an open-access arts festival held annually in Brighton, England. It is the largest annual arts festival in England and one of the largest fringe festivals in the world. Brighton Fringe 2018 took place from 4 May “ 3 June. The programme of 2018 included 1008 events at over 166 venues across 4 weeks.
Brighton Fringe runs at a similar time to Brighton Festival, and in 2013 extended its run to four weeks. In 2019, Brighton Fringe will run from 3 May-2 June.
One of the event's main objectives is to promote local talent and the arts. It also offers performers an opportunity for their event to be reviewed or picked up by promoters, as well as going on to Edinburgh. This is why anyone can put on a Brighton Fringe event. In 2011 Brighton Fringe launched the Professional Development Programme, aimed at offering workshops to aspiring performers wanting to progress in the business. In 2012, Brighton Fringe opened its own on-street box office, which provided a physical base for the arts event, selling tickets as well as being a hub for promoters and performers. They also launched Brighton in the Square, a showcase of Brighton Fringe performers at the Leicester Square Theatre in London.
As part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, Brighton Fringe introduced the Dip Your Toe project in 2012, which featured performances in six custom-built Victorian bathing machines, which were located throughout Brighton and Hove during the month of May. In 2014, the organisation launched an Arts Council England supported scheme called Window which showcases productions suitable for touring.
Brighton Fringe is a registered charity but does not rely on public funding, in fact, less than 3% of its income is generated from public sources. The other sources of revenue include participants' registration fees, advertising, sponsorship and Friends membership.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM9Y - British Airways i360 is a 162-metre (531 ft) observation tower on the seafront of Brighton, East Sussex, England at the landward end of the former West Pier. The tower opened on 4 August 2016. From the fully enclosed viewing pod, visitors experience 360-degree views across Brighton, the South Downs, the English Channel and on the clearest days it is possible to see Beachy Head 17 miles (27 km) to the east and the Isle of Wight 41 miles (66 km) to the west.
British Airways i360 was designed, engineered, manufactured and promoted by the team responsible for the London Eye. It is estimated by the developers that the i360 will generate more than 440 permanent jobs
160 posts at the attraction, and additional jobs from the spin-off benefits to other businesses in the city. The attraction cost £46 million, with £36 million being funded by a Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) loan through Brighton and Hove city council.
Formerly known as the Brighton i360, the project aimed to attract 739,000 paying customers every year, but has consistently fallen significantly short of this. The owner of the site, the West Pier Trust, hoped in 2014 that a successful i360 would lead to the rebuilding of the historic West Pier. The i360 carried its 1,000,000th passenger on the 11am flight on 11 March 2019.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2ADR29X - Via bar on Canal Street in Manchester's Gay Village, photographed at night with coloured exterior lighting, illuminated signage, awnings and people moving along the pavement. The image captures the lively evening atmosphere of one of Manchester city centre's best known LGBTQ+ nightlife areas, where Canal Street, the Rochdale Canal and nearby streets are associated with queer culture, Pride events, cabaret, bars, clubs, restaurants and tourism. Via Manchester is listed at 28-30 Canal Street, Manchester M1 3EZ, and its own venue information describes it as a friendly local LGBTQ+ bar with live entertainment seven days a week. The venue also describes itself as open since 1995 and as the grande dame of Canal Street, a long standing part of the Gay Village's entertainment scene. This editorial image is useful for coverage of Manchester Pride, LGBTQ+ travel, nightlife, city breaks, inclusive tourism, cabaret venues, evening economy, urban leisure, hospitality, queer history and the cultural identity of Manchester. The visible VIA signs, colourful rainbow-style lighting and twilight street scene give the photograph strong search value for articles about Canal Street, the Gay Village, Pride weekends, LGBTQIA+ venues, night-time economy, bars and live entertainment in North West England. The picture also works for broader features on city centre regeneration, tourism marketing, weekend breaks, hospitality recovery, pub and bar culture, Manchester after dark and the importance of LGBTQ+ venues as social and cultural anchors. The mix of deep blue dusk sky, bright coloured lights, brick architecture and blurred passers-by creates a sense of movement and excitement while keeping the venue frontage as the main documentary subject. Editorial use should recognise that the venue name and visible signage may be protected branding, so the image is best suited to news, travel, culture, nightlife and documentary contexts
