The live music at the new MCR Pride Live site has got underway this afternoon, with headline performances today from Yungblud and Sigala.
The music will take over a site just off First Street today and tomorrow, August 28 and 29.
It's the first time Manchester Pride have held their live music at this venue, which is around a 10-minute walk from the edge of the Gay Village.

Two stages have been built here, the main stage and the Gaydio Dance Tent - you can see the full stage times and line up for Saturday here.
But the question on everyone's lips will be - 'exactly how much is a pint going to cost me?'
Live music venues can be notoriously expensive for drinks - and it's no different at MCR Pride Live.
The main bar at the venue is a can bar, with 440ml cans of Amstel and Strongbow coming in at £5.30 apiece.
It's £5.50 for 330ml cans of Heineken, Desperados and Old Mout Cider, and the same price for a 440ml can of Strongbow Dark Fruit.
If you're wanting an IPA, you're looking at £5.60 for a can of Lagunitas IPA.
Half-bottles of wine from Headliner at £13 each.
There are nods to local producers, with cans of Didsbury gin and tonic £6 each.
For other spirits like Captain Morgan rum, Gordons gin, and Smirnoff vodka, it's £6 for 25ml or £8.50 for a double measure.
Soft drinks are priced between £2.20 and £3.50.
One of the smaller bars at the MCR Pride Live site is serving pints - but at £6.50 for a pint of Heineken or Strongbow Dark Fruit, it'll cost you.
