Ariana Grande’s return to Manchester is a matter of hours away as she headlines the city’s annual Pride festival.
The Thank U, Next singer is heading the bill on Sunday night, returning to Manchester for the first time since she played the One Love concert in June 2017, less than two weeks after a terrorist attack targeted her show at Manchester Arena and killed 22 people.
She’ll round off a day of performances which will also include the likes of Cheryl, Bananarama, Becky Hill and Pixie Lott – but just what time does Ariana take to the stage?
Here’s what you need to know…
What time is Ariana Grande on stage at Manchester Pride?
If you’re heading down to Manchester Pride to catch Ariana Grande, she’s on the Yard stage tonight at 10.25pm.
Cheryl will be preceeding her on the bill at 9.30pm, with Tulisa at 8.30pm, and Bananarama on at 7pm.
Even earlier in the day Becky Hill will take to the Yard stage at 6pm and Pixie Lott will be on at 5pm.
Ariana announced back in February that she would be performing at Manchester Pride this year, telling her Twitter followers: ‘Manchester babes, I’m so thrilled to be headlining pride. My heart. I can’t wait to see u and I love u so much.’
Who else has performed at Manchester Pride 2019?
The weekend has also featured performances from the likes of Years and Years, trans pop star Kim Petras, rapper Lady Leshurr and X Factor’s Louisa and Four Of Diamonds.
This year has seen the festival move into its new home at Mayfield Depot, close to the city’s Piccadilly station – a former Royal Mail sorting office now used for events.
