Off the back of last year’s hugely successful Great Mancunian Ball 2024, Taylor Lynn Corporation (TLC) is once again proud to partner with St Ann’s Hospice to deliver another unforgettable celebration of Manchester culture – The Great Mancunian Lunch 2025.
The Ball, held at Aviva Studios in November 2024, was a spectacular black-and-yellow themed evening hosted by Gary and Emma Neville. Highlights included Gary Neville’s YouTube hit The Overlap live on stage with football legends Jamie Carragher, Ian Wright, Jill Scott, and Roy Keane, followed by a three-course dinner and a high-energy performance by The Swan Band. The evening raised vital funds for St Ann’s Hospice’s Build it Together campaign, supporting their new state-of-the-art hospice in Heald Green.

Dress to Impress: Smart Chic in Black & Yellow
The theme for the afternoon is ‘Smart Chic in Black & Yellow’ – a stylish nod to Manchester. Guests are encouraged to embrace their Mancunian pride with a well-turned-out look and an accessory or detail that celebrates the city. No need for formalwear, just bold, individual style.
Supporting St Ann’s Hospice
As with The Great Mancunian Ball, every detail of The Great Mancunian Lunch has been designed to both entertain and inspire, while raising essential funds for St Ann’s Hospice and its new hospice building in Heald Green.
