WE ARE BACK with the return of Glug Manchester #3 'I remember my first time...'

After another amazing successful Glug Manchester in July we are keen to lock in the next one, and bring you an even more jam packed event!

Do you remember your first time? We are a fan of firsts here at Glug, the first big idea, first successful projects, first job that paved a career or perhaps the first time you understood the true needs of your target audience.

We are heading back to our favourite bar Noho in the Northern Quarter. The next instalment of Glug Manchester will be on Thursday 20th October!

About Glug

Glug is a series of events for the design and creative community. Our showcase event is held in London but there are now many other events around the world.

Based around a series of talks and informal networking, Glug has become one of the most exciting, credible and well attended creative events around.

Established in 2007, it’s an eclectic mix of people from all creative walks of life; from advertising, graphic design and the visual arts through to fashion, architecture and the crafts.

It’s a fine melting pot indeed, regularly attended by creatives, students, clients, cultural voyeurs, hipsters and the industry elite. Come! Be intoxicated and inspired, you’re also bound to make some new contacts, friends and maybe even find that next job/contract/lover.

Be part of the movement.

Currently we’re popping up regularly in:

London, New York City, Birmingham, Beijing, Brighton, Edinburgh, Auckland, Stockholm, Leeds & Oxford.

Shortly: Philadelphia, Chicago & Amsterdam
