Legendary music venue Band on the Wall is on Swan St, close to the heart of the Northern Quarter. It was a venue for live music since the early part of the 20th century. The neon logo of a man with a beret wearing glasses has a feel of jazz, though Band On The Wall hosts a wide range of live music. The venue has gone through an extensive refurbishment and will shortly be re-opening.

Band On The Wall is a Manchester legend that will live on for years to come.
