Manchester Welcomes… The BRITs 2026: we’re proud to play a little part in it!

The BRIT Awards are coming to Manchester for the first time at the end of the month, and we couldn’t be more excited to share our small part in the city-wide celebrations leading up to the big night.

The BRITs Art Trail showcases the work of 21 artists across the Northern Quarter and Ancoats; curated by renowned Manchester artist Stanley Chow and produced by local creative producers Wild in Art. And through our generously proportioned windows here at Northstar, we’re thrilled to announce you’ll be able to see what the brilliant Luke Insect has done with the place. 

The complete trail will unfold across striking wall murals, immersive window installations, and bold billboard takeovers, all in the spirit of celebrating Manchester’s vibrant creative community.
