Organised by the Northwest Small Practice Forum (NSPF), a collective of architectural practices in the north west of the UK, Scale Festival explores urban environments in the region.

The programme includes an exhibition showcasing the work of these studios, a series of talks outlining case studies and workshops addressing topics such as public procurement, development and local authorities.

The event aims to highlight the quality of work of smaller practices in the region.

Scale Festival 2025 takes place from 19 September to 15 October 2025 at Seesaw, 86 Princess Street, Manchester M1 6NG, UK.
