Contemporary Venues in Manchester

As a key city of culture, Manchester boasts a vast amount of contemporary venues which are perfect for holding events requiring a modern or futuristic setting. Why not make your next conference, meeting, drinks reception, or private party a little more 21st century by hiring a bright and stylish event space? The National Football Museum is a great example of the interesting and modern contemporary venues which you’ll find on offer in Manchester. You don’t need to be mad about football to enjoy one of city’s most sought-after venues which has been hired for product launches, parties, fashion shows, gala dinners, drinks receptions, and more. Salford’s The Lowry not only boasts stunning views of the waterfront; it also can cater for your next conference meeting, or private party in a range of different event spaces. The venue is a well-known arts centre, so if you fancy hosting your next drinks reception in a contemporary art gallery, The Lowry would make an ideal choice. You’ll also find venue hire is available in the form of meeting rooms and theatres which can hold between 12 and 1,730 people.

Destination Emirates Old Trafford Launches Christmas Party Guide

Destination Emirates Old Trafford has launched a guide for event planners, both new and experienced, on how to get the most out of their Christmas events this year. The guide, which comes in blog, video, and social media form consists of top tips for organisers when planning these important business events. The guide has been created in partnership with the venue’s event operations team, who have experience in organising events from small corporate meetings to large scale sporting and musical events, as well as some of the specialist party organisers who continue to work with the venue. The top tips include everything from notes on making the events accessible, safe, but also creative, whilst offering the best value from the business’s investment. Equally thought, the guidance is very much aimed at taking the pain and pressure away from event organisers, ensuring they are able to enjoy and be a part of the event as well. “For many of our clients, this will be a fun piece of guidance that offers some reminders of best practice around Christmas events, but we also hope it will act as a really helpful beginners guide for the many organisers whose first real experience in event planning will be the big end of year celebration,” comments Nicola Pinder – Senior Business Development Manager at Emirates Old Trafford. The guidance is out now, but also tied into a series of promotions the venue is running to encourage event planners to book early and begin the planning process as early as possible.

Riding the Wave of Success: Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel Team Reels In Aimbridge ‘Whale of a Win’ Award

The Mercure Manchester Piccadilly hotel team won the Aimbridge Hospitality's ‘Whale of a Win’ Award 2024 – a 4ft soft cuddly whale named Amy, which honours “AMY-zing results”. The recognition followed the announcement that the hotel's meeting and booking revenue has grown by 55% in the year to April, following a £3million refurbishment project of 280 bedrooms and reception area, plus a major investment in people. This focus on employees featured an extensive recruitment drive to hire 53 conference, events, and hotel staff locally. The appointment of two leadership positions has been key to the business making significant strides in its commitment to excellence in events, hospitality, and service. Stephen Cox has been appointed Conference & Events Operations Manager, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise to the role. Within a few months, Stephen has already overhauled the hotel’s conference and events offering for organisers and delegates, and VenueVerdict scores are now consistently achieving 9/10. Dhiraj Kumar has also been hired as Head Chef. With more than two decades of experience working with major hotel brands, Dhiraj brings a wealth of culinary knowledge and creativity. Aziza Yessi, Sales Director, Mercure Manchester Piccadilly, commented: “Our teams have achieved a phenomenal uplift in the M&E segment, fuelled by a standout performance in February. Our events and hotel teams have shown exceptional foresight, strategic planning, tenacity, and commitment to client satisfaction and retention. We are delighted to have our hard work and achievements recognised with this fun Aimbridge Award for April.” This is the second Aimbridge award for Mercure Manchester Piccadilly this year. In January, the business won the Aimbridge Hospitality Award for the most improved Accor hotel in EMEA, with a 12.7% increase in performance and guest reputation.
