Leicester to Manchester and back
Leicester to Manchester and back
Hi everyone! I’m heading to the Sabrina Carpenter concert in Manchester on the 14th. Since I’m not from the UK and am staying with a friend in Leicester for a week, I’d love to know the most budget-friendly options for traveling to and from the concert on the same night. Is that doable? Thanks!
That sounds like an exciting trip! The most affordable way to travel from Leicester to Manchester and back is usually by train or coach.
Train: It’s often quicker, and you can find some great deals if you book in advance. Check websites like National Rail or Trainline for prices and schedules. The journey typically takes around 1.5 to 2 hours, and you can often find return tickets for under £30 if you book ahead. Just make sure to check the last train back to Leicester after the concert!
Coach: If you’re looking for the cheapest option, taking a coach with companies like National Express or Megabus could be the way to go. The journey may take longer (around 2.5 to 3 hours), but tickets can be very affordable, sometimes as low as £5-£10 each way. Be mindful of the return times, though!
Make sure to check concert timing and travel schedules so you don’t miss the last transport home! Have an amazing time at the concert!
