The Eagle Inn is a historic 1848 Salford pub a short walk from Deansgate and Victoria, with a bespoke 80-capacity live-music room next door complete with a raised stage. Its 'All Things Considered' acoustic open mic runs on the third Tuesday of each month from 8:30pm, welcoming singers, poets, storytellers, raconteurs and musicians in a turn-up-and-perform format. Entry is free and the intimate, well-regarded venue makes it a popular spot on Greater Manchester's grassroots circuit.
About The Eagle Inn
The Eagle Inn is an award-winning Salford music venue set in a traditional Victorian pub on Collier Street. In 2014 the terraced house next door was converted into an 80-capacity room with a raised stage and balcony, and it now runs a full calendar of live music, spoken word, comedy, theatre and film on almost every night of the week. It's a cornerstone of Greater Manchester's grassroots gig circuit.
