Jason Manford tops the bill at Tatton this weekend

Monday, 4 July 2022 19:40

Comedian Jason Manford will be gracing the stage at Tatton Park Pop Up Festival this week, along with famous Manchester DJ Jason Herd and the perennially popular Kidchella festival.

In a video to fans he said how much he was looking forward to returning to the festival, after his Manford’s Comedy Club show pulled a spectacular crowd last summer. “It’s going to be a wicked night, it was great last time with everybody sat out in the sunshine with picnics and drinks and having a good old laugh together! It will be lovely to see you after so long, so hopefully we’ll see you there,” he said.
