The Incredibly Diverse Kings Arms






Salford institution The Kings Arms is a pub with a fairly extensive events list, owing in part to its unique attribute of a theatre space for 120 on its upper floor, which regularly hosts plays and live music. Elsewhere in the pub there's a knitting club (in a room featuring a knitted chandelier), a very popular Dylan Day, and on Thursdays a Klezmer music workshop. Featured here are landlady Livy Pickford and Jimmy Foster, who coordinates theatre events.
