Taking place at Cotton Works, Friday Club is a networking get-together with the people who keep Wigan's wheels turning.

Friday Club is Wigan's relaxed, end-of-week networking event. Bringing together local professionals, entrepreneurs, and business owners in a friendly, informal setting.

Hosted by Cotton Works at Feast at the Mills, our monthly meet-up is all about connection, conversation, and community.

What started back in March 2025 as a small gathering of local professionals has quickly grown into one of Wigan's most enjoyable and authentic networking events.

Each month, we introduce something a little different - from casual meet-and-greets to inspiring Spotlight Talks, where members of our community share their stories, experiences, and expertise.

Whether you're a freelancer, business owner, or part of a local team, Friday Club is open to everyone. There's no pressure, no pitches - just great people and great conversation to round off your week.

Free drink on entry.

This month, we're proud to be supporting Wigan Youth Zone.

About Wigan Youth Zone

Wigan Youth Zone needs little introduction to anyone local - the go-to place in the town centre giving young people somewhere to go, something to do, and someone to talk to, seven days a week. From sports and the arts to mentoring and mental health support, it's become one of the borough's most-loved charities, and one that's touched most of our lives in some way, whether that's through your own kids, your team's fundraising, or just knowing someone who's been through their doors.

We're delighted to have Lynsey Heyes from Wigan Youth Zone joining us for a Spotlight Talk, sharing an inside look at the impact the Youth Zone has across the borough and what it takes to keep a place like that running.

Join us on 11th September to network, connect, and help us support the work they do for young people across the borough.
