Manchester's Baby Week 2025
Always double check opening hours with the venue before making a special visit.
Manchester’s Baby Week is back! Prepare for six days of big fun, tiny socks and plenty of free activities from Monday 16 – Saturday 21 June 2025.
Yes, you read that right, six whole days of free events designed to support your little baba’s journey from womb to wobble (aka age 0–2). It’s a lovely chance to get out of the house and explore the city with your little cherub, and is a great way for you to meet other mums and dads in your area, and maybe the little ones might make friends too, in their own way!
Expect everything from Baby Massage (yes, even tiny humans feel tense), Family Swim Sessions, First Aid Courses for sleep-deprived grown-ups, and Family Fun Days – complete with parks, play, and some tasty snacks you forgot to pack. Don’t worry – we’ve all been there!
Events are happening across the city in cultural venues, leisure centres, Family Hubs and Sure Start Children’s Centres, because nothing says culture like a toddler with a tambourine.
The festivities begin with a Launch Event at Manchester Art Gallery and Central Library on Monday 16 June, and wrap up on Saturday 21 June in local parks.
So grab your baby, their nappy bag, anything else you might need (half the house, we imagine) and bob on over to one or all of the events during Manchester’s Baby Week 2025. Find out more information and how you can get involved on the website.
