What Is Black Friday?
Originating in the United States, Black Friday is now one of the biggest shopping events in the UK. It traditionally takes place the day after Thanksgiving – marking the start of the Christmas shopping season – and brings with it some of the best retail discounts of the year.
Over the past decade, Black Friday in Manchester has become a must-shop weekend, with fashion, beauty, tech and lifestyle brands offering limited-time deals and special in-store experiences.
At Manchester Arndale, you’ll find hundreds of stores under one roof, meaning you can shop more and make a full day of it – from grabbing your morning coffee to ending with dinner between bargains.
