Music for the Senses

Manchester is the place for music, and this summer, while the city celebrates an incredible line up of musical talent, Wild in Art – the team behind the award-winning Bee in the City – will take over the streets with a brand new art trail, Music for the Senses: an art arrangement for a musical city.

Created in collaboration with Manchester City Council, the trail will run from 7 July – 31 August 2025. The trail will feature artworks, exhibitions and installations that celebrate the people, places, moments and instruments of Manchester’s music scene. At the end of the trail the decorated guitars will be auctioned to raise money to support grassroots music projects and venues throughout Greater Manchester via a dedicated music fund managed by our charity partner Forever Manchester, in collaboration with Manchester Music City.

Stop by Treehouse Hotel Manchester to see our guitar included in the trail by Manchester based artist, Caroline Daly who has created a one-of-a-kind guitar especially. There will be further activities taking place as part of this celebration at the hotel with more details to follow in due course.
