Revolution confirms which of their Manchester bars will close and when as 12 sites shut across country

It’s one of two shutting in Greater Manchester.

It has been confirmed which Manchester branch of bar chain Revolution will be closing later this year.

The group has announced that its Deansgate Locks premises will be closing its doors permanently at the end of August. It is one of 12 branches that are closing across the UK as the chain looks to cut costs. Wigan’s Revolution on King Street will also shut at the same time. Revolution also has two other Manchester sites - Oxford Road and Parsonage Gardens - that are not impacted.

An announcement on Revolution's website says: "We are sorry to say that we will be closing the doors on Manchester - Deansgate Locks on or around August 31, 2024. We're going to be throwing the best parties and serving up the best food up until this time, come and join us for one last Pornstar Martini.”

At the beginning of this year, the brand's parent company Revolution Bars Group announced it would be closing five Revolution bars, as well as branches of their other brands, with five Revolución de Cuba sites and one Playhouse pub to close.

It was further reported in April that another 12 bars were at risk of closure but these were not named. The closures have now been confirmed, with most scheduled to close at the end of August.
