Join us at Sureshot Taproom, Manchester on Thursday 10 September as our roaming Drag Race UK viewing party takes over the brewery for the Design Challenge.

We'll be watching the brand-new episode together on the big screen from 7pm, surrounded by live drag, performances, hosting, audience interaction and an aftershow as we unpack everything that happens on the runway.

And because every NIGHTWIG viewing party is being built around its venue, we're doing something particularly special at Sureshot...

🍺 THE NIGHTWIG SEASON EDITION

For this event, Sureshot is creating a special limited-edition NIGHTWIG beer, produced on site at the Manchester brewery especially for our Series 8 viewing season.

Alongside Sureshot's full beer, wine, spirits and spritz offering, we're also working on food and some extra surprises to make this much more than simply watching the episode in a bar.
