Karabiner Mountaineering Club

Pub Meets

Throughout much of its history, the Club has held regular pub meets in central Manchester on Thursday evenings. These are now held in The Britons Protection near the Bridgewater Hall, on the first Thursday of the month from about 9:30pm onwards. Various members of the KMC Committee should be in the pub following the monthly committee meeting, so this is the best time to come along and meet Club members. The meet is held upstairs (access via stairs just behind the bar).


Please note, in August, by tradition there's no committee meeting, and consequently no organised pub meet, (either on the first or any other Thursday of that month) as various Club members are likely to be on holiday then.
