Heaton Park is a municipal park in Manchester offering championship golf, a neoclassical historic home and over 600 acres of rolling grounds and serene green space. Heaton Hall, the manor house on the grounds, is a Grade I Listed Building dating to the 18th century.

The park has long been used to host public events and festivals and is a popular destination for visitors and locals alike. It was opened to the public in 1902 and served vital purposes during both world wars as a training ground and military camp. Today it’s a history and leisure attraction.
