The pubs are shut, the clubs are empty, the bars are deserted - but thanks to one local DJ, Ancoats was louder than ever on Saturday night.
Located safely on a private balcony in the heart of the neighbourhood, DJ Coast2Coast performed a lively DJ set for residents stuck inside during the coronavirus lockdown.
Locals could be seen dancing at windows and on their balconies during the performance, which included smoke machines and lights.
It's a fitting way to tackle lockdown entertainment for a city famed for its nightlife and music. In Italy and Spain, locals have been pulling out instruments and playing music together - here in Manchester, it's a set of decks and the loudest possible speakers.
