Attraction Information

When we think of iconic British television, "Coronation Street" immediately comes to mind. Located in the heart of Manchester, the Coronation Street Tour offers families an opportunity to step onto the authentic cobbles and experience the rich history of Weatherfield. For parents and kids alike, this is an immersive journey into one of TV's longest-running soap operas.

Since its inception in 1960, "Coronation Street" has captivated audiences with its unique blend of drama, humour, and relatable storylines. The Coronation Street Tour is a celebration of this legacy. Opened to the public in 2014, the tour has become one of Manchester's most sought-after attractions. A key feature of the attraction is the set itself, which was actively used in the show's production until 2013.

One fascinating fact is that the set was initially created solely for filming and wasn't built to last. Over the years, modifications and reconstructions have occurred, ensuring it remains both functional for filming and safe for touring. Today, the set stands as a testament to British television history.

Visitor Testimonial

"Our visit to the Coronation Street Tour was absolutely magical. My husband and I grew up watching 'Corrie', and sharing this experience with our kids aged 9 and 12 was special. They were especially thrilled to see the actual houses and shops. The behind-the-scenes access was a hit! It's a day out we'll cherish forever." - Sarah, from Cheshire.
