Where the World Comes to Play. Band on the Wall proudly reopens March 2022. Band on the Wall, the music venue owned and operated by Inner City Music, has been at the very heart of Manchester culture for many years. A showcase venue for some of the best music in the world, we present an internationally-acclaimed programme of live music events, both in-house and externally at venues across the UK. Our unusual name harks back to the building’s days as The George and Dragon pub in the early 20th Century. Regulars would affectionately refer to the ‘Band on the Wall’ as the place where house musicians quite literally played on a stage halfway up the back wall to make room in the busy pub.
