Afflecks Palace of Manchester

Afflecks Palace is a modest red-brick building, but don't be fooled by its modest appearance that it has played a key role in Northern Quarter's success. Opened in 1982, the five-storey market, with 70 individual shops, is one of Manchester's most popular cultural markets and a platform for the city's many artists and fashion designers to showcase their work. Whether you're shopping for vintage clothing, used records or custom art, there's no better place to look than Afflecks Palace.
