After a year away, our much-loved open air theatre is BACK — and we’re going out with a bang (or should that be a howl?).

This June, grab your picnic rug, pack a hamper, and settle in for a gloriously fun evening under the open skies of Longford Park. The critically acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company brings you a thrillingly inventive take on one of literature’s greatest mysteries:

Sherlock Holmes — The Hound of the Baskervilles

Wednesday 17th June 2026 | Gates open 6pm | Show starts 7pm

📍 People’s Millions Garden, Longford Park, Stretford, Manchester M32 8PX

🎟️ Tickets: £16 | 2 hours including interval

Holmes and Watson are on the case — but can they unravel the deadly secret of the Baskerville curse before it strikes again? Packed with live music, audience interaction and more laughs than you can shake a magnifying glass at, this is a night out the whole family will be talking about.

This is classic outdoor theatre — bring your camping chairs, picnic blanket, your favourite food and drinks, and come ready to enjoy a magical summer evening. No seating is provided, so come prepared and make a proper night of it!

Tickets are limited and selling fast — don’t miss out. Ticket sales close at 10am on the day of the event, with any remaining available on the gate (cash preferred).
