Adidas Skateboarding has arrived next door to Union at Factory International for a 12-day long skateboarding event, ‘Build Manchester’ kicks off on Saturday 27 July and will run until 8 August, transforming the walkway outside Factory International into a custom-built skate plaza.
Over the course of the 12-days you’re welcome to either watch along from the sidelines or get involved. A series of free events will celebrate all things skateboarding, including workshops from Northern Quarter favourite Note, who will be hosting skate lessons for beginners, intermediate and advanced skaters.
There will even be demos from Adidas Skateboarding pros Gabriel Summers, Dan Fisher, Jarrad Carlin, Tom Snape, Nikolai Piombo, Vitoria Mendonca and Sam Narvaez.
Kicking off on Saturday, the same day as Manchester Day, there will be an opening launch party featuring Global Skate Jam, trick competitions, Palace Skate DJs and exclusive giveaways.
