FIRST LOOK / WHAT’S THAT BIG YELLOW THING? I HARDLY RECOGNISE HER ☀️
The sun has arrived in Manchester - and we’re not just referring to that one that’s popped up in the sky at long last. This particular sun is indoors…
This amazing installation is Helios, and it’s just appeared inside @victoriabaths.
Created by @lukejerramartist, the beautiful art piece measures a whopping seven metres in diameter and has been created using images captured by NASA, now dangling above the former swimming baths.
It’s going to be lighting up this corner of Manchester until 6 April.

Suspended above the iconic pool at @victoriabaths, this seven-metre glowing sculpture reveals the incredible beauty of our nearest star, with over 400,000 high-resolution photographs captured by astrophotographer Dr. Stuart Green and NASA.
It’s a mesmerising experience, all for just £3: a total steal.
The stunning art piece has been brought to Manchester by internationally acclaimed artist, @lukejerramartist and it’s a must-do once in a lifetime experience.

One afternoon. Two stops. Here’s the perfect Manchester afternoon for parents with a toddler with energy to burn and the craving for good coffee in a calm setting!
🫧 First stop: Bubble Planet (@bubbleplanetexperience) – a really fun immersive experience and sensory heaven. Also, the easiest way to tire them out! There were lots of fun and colourful rooms to explore, but our little one couldn’t get enough of the pink balloon ball pit. Pure joy!
Second stop: Cafe Cotton (@cottoncafebar) at Neptune Mill – just a 9-min stroll from Bubble Planet. We reset with a cosy coffee stop… and yep, she was already asleep in the pram by the time we got there.
Bubble Planet
Depot Mayfield, 10 Temperance St, Manchester M12 6HR
Café Cotton
Neptune Mill, 64 Chapeltown St, Manchester M1 2WQ
(not to be confused with their branch in Ancoats)
For a solid and easy plan, save this for your next family day out 🤍
