CultureNEVER STOP EXPLORING WITH END. AND THE NORTH FACE AT PARTHIAN CLIMBING
28 February 2023Hosting an intimate evening of climbing, music and food, END. teamed up with The North Face at Parthian Climbing in Manchester to "Never Stop Exploring".
Under the mantra “Never Stop Exploring”, The North Face has dedicated itself to championing outdoor pursuits, celebrating the joy the natural world can bring, and how to respectfully navigate our enjoyment of the outdoors and the impact that may have on our environment.
Celebrating this approach, END. and The North Face teamed up to offer an evening of rock climbing to the people of Manchester. Held at Parthian Climbing Centre, the evening saw climbers of all ability diving into the sport, whether being shown how to safely top rope climb or exploring the centre’s bouldering wall.
Setting the scene, Manchester’s newest record store, Haunted Dancehall, provided music for the evening’s proceedings, while sketch artist Dave Draws created a mural to honour the city’s cultural offerings, featuring attendees’ suggestions of the city’s highlights.
With food from the Hip Hop Chip Shop to refuel part way through the climb, the evening was topped off with a prize draw, offering a selection of The North Face accessories and gift cards to the lucky winners. Placing emphasis on education and enjoyment, the evening encapsulated the North Face’s dedication to exploration through an homage to the great city of Manchester.
