MANCHAGEN EUROVISION FESTIVAL
ABOUT THE
Get ready, Eurovision fans! The MancHagen Eurovision Festival (MEF) is coming in hot for 2025, and it's set to be bigger, louder, and more fabulous aiming to be the UK’s biggest Eurovision festival ever!
From 11 – 13 April, the heart of Manchester will be transformed into an extravaganza of music, glitter, and Eurovision magic. Powered by the UK’s longest running Eurovision event, Manchester Eurovision Party and Copenhagen Eurovision Party who debuted their event in style in 2024, this festival promises to be unlike any event you have ever seen before.
Along with the Ukrainian Cultural Organization, United For You, MancHagen promises to be the event of the Eurovision calendar. You can expect to see two jaw-dropping concerts, featuring the Eurovision 2025 acts as they take over the UK as part of their European promo tour and many more artists from previous years. This is your ultimate pass to the Eurovision world, and you don’t want to miss it.
MancHagen isn’t just a festival, it’s got Eurovision at it’s heart! Think Scandinavian chic, incredible key changes, and glamour on a whole new level. This is LGBTQIA+ heaven, with events happening at two of Manchester’s most iconic venues, plus an exclusive VIP Carpet Parade. If you want even more then you better get ready to bring the most sparkling, glittering outfit in your wardrobe as you will have the chance to meet thestars up close. MancHagen is the place to let your inner Eurovision star shine!
Why Manchester? Because it’s the Capital of the North, with nearly 3 million residents,
known for its incredible music scene and epic parties. With a capacity of over 6,100
guests across two live concerts alone, MancHagen is already set to be one of the
largest Eurovision pre-party events in the world
And for three days, you’ll be partying with Eurovision legends, the Class of 2025
Eurovision stars, and a mix of the UK, Irish, and Scandinavian drag queens for a festival unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. The festival isn’t just about the music — it’s about community and giving back.
MancHagen is a not-for-profit charity event, raising money for incredible causes like Doctors Without Borders, Ukrainian children’s charities, and Danish trans youth organizations. In addition, for 2025, they’re adding even more Manchester and UK-based LGBTQIA+ charities to the mix. So, while you’re having the time of your life, you’re also helping make a difference!
The line-up? In a word - EPIC. In 2024, the festival hosted over 70 artists on stage, including queer stars like Lithuania’s Sylvester Belt, Australia’s Electric Fields, and Czechia’s Aiko, plus a special guest appearance from **Courtney Act**! Expect more star power in 2025, with Eurovision All Stars, new 2025 competitors, and some of the best performers Manchester and the UK have to offer.
But that’s not all, MancHagen is all about the experience. From Drag-A-Vision performances, drag bingo, Eurovision quizzes, and even our very own EuroVillage Song Contest and more, this festival is for everyone, so bring the whole family! And once the concerts are over, don’t miss the EuroClub vibes with non-stop dancing until the early hours at exclusive venues across the city.
