Two men in their 20s and a man in his 50s suffered stab wounds, said cops.
All three have been arrested on suspicion of affray.
Officers do not believe there is a wider threat to the public following last night’s incident.
But GMP says there will be an increased police presence in the area as a precaution.
Detective Superintendent Ian McNabb of the City of Manchester Central District said: “The use of knives or violence in our communities is completely unacceptable. Incidents like this are incredibly serious and can have devastating consequences.
“Our officers are working tirelessly in the city centre and across Greater Manchester to tackle this kind of offending and keep people safe.
“We will be relentless in our efforts to remove knives from our streets and to bring those who carry or use them to justice to prevent incidents like this happening
“Anyone with information is asked should contact police on 101 or via LiveChat quoting log 3667 of 19/05/2026. Always call 999 in an emergency.”
