Club Animalz Manchester is the original and flagship location of the international Club Animalz brand. Since June 2017, it has been drawing furries, pups, and LGBTQ+ clubbers to Cruz 101 in Manchester's Gay Village for 4 to 5 nights per year.
Cruz 101 offers two dancefloors: pop and EDM upstairs, deeper techno and house downstairs in Sub 101. A dedicated fursuit changing area provides free chilled water and EzCool vest facilities. The night runs from approximately 7:30 PM to 2 AM.
Sub 101 typically hosts a pre-party the night before each main event, extending the weekend for those traveling to Manchester.
This is an LGBTQ+ nightclub event. Fursuits, pup gear, leather, rubber, and casual attire are all welcome. The atmosphere is inclusive and judgment-free.
Check clubanimalz.com for upcoming dates and ticket links. Tickets are approximately GBP 20. The event requires membership-style purchase.
2026 dates: January 24, April 11, June 13, August 8, November 21.
Cruz 101 is at 101 Princess Street, Manchester M1 6DD, in the heart of Manchester's Gay Village. It is a 10-minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly station. Manchester Airport is 15 km south with direct rail links.
