There is lots to do in and around Stockport this weekend!

The much-loved Flecky Bennett will kick off the weekend with a ghost tour around Stockport town centre.

Running on Saturday is a performance of Dick Whittington at Stockport Sunday School (showings will also take place on Thursday 15th and Friday 16th also).

Rounding off the weekend is the ND-EXPO, showcasing neurodivergent speakers and groups.

Also on Sunday is the hotly-anticipated Rave Cadets at Bask, but unfortunately tickets have sold out. Keep an eye out, though - you might catch a lucky resale or giveaway.

Flecky Bennett’s The Stockport Ghost Walk | Meet outside Stockport Plaza | Fri 16 Feb | 7pm

We all love weird, wonderful and ghostly stories!

And when the stories are based upon well-documented accounts, witness statements and Flecky's own personal experiences, they then take on a new life (and death) of their own.

Welcome to the weird, wonderful and ghostly world of Flecky Bennett, described as Horrible Histories for Adults!

Allow Flecky to welcome you onto his award winning Stockport Ghost Walk, a firm favourite with locals, tourist and weirdos, since 2018, and the Winner of 2022 Made in Stockport Award
