Greater Manchester Creative Industries Plan

Overview

Greater Manchester is in the process of developing a Creative Industries Sector Plan, to be published in June, 2025. This plan will provide an overview of the sector as it is and where, with targeted investment and activity, we can maximise the economic potential of our thriving creative ecosystem 

We want to make sure Greater Manchester's Creative Industries Sector Plan properly captures the strength and diversity of all Creative Industry sub-sectors so if you work in one of the following industries: 

• Advertising and Marketing 

• Architecture 

• Design and Designer Fashion 

• Film, TV, Radio and Photography 

• Museums, Galleries and Libraries 

• Crafts 

• Performing and Visual Arts 

• Publishing 

• IT, Software and Computer Services (including Video Games)

We want to hear about your ambitions, experiences and current challenges to make sure our plan gives all creative businesses and individuals the support they need to thrive.
