It's best to book a large conference venue in Manchester at least 6 months to a year in advance. This is especially important if you want to host your event during busy times of the year, like spring or autumn. Booking early helps ensure you get the venue you want and can sometimes get you a better deal.
Serving alcohol is possible at many large conference venues in Manchester, especially in hotels and dedicated event spaces. However, you should check with the venue about their specific rules and any required licences. Venues like Voco Manchester and The Edwardian Manchester often have bar services or allow you to hire an external vendor to serve alcohol.
Beautiful space, perfect for our book event. Ian and the rest of the staff were helpful, friendly, and accommodating both before the day and during the event itself. I really appreciated having an expert AV technician on hand all day. Very convenient to also have a cafe/bar on-site.
A great venue with a big space. The food options were really good and would definitely use the venue again.
Great space, lovely staff. Everyone was very helpful. Justyna was fantastic! The food was wonderful too. We have suggested this venue to others already
Staff were amazing, coffee shop and rooms are so bright and characterful. Great equipment and free teas & coffees all day! What a great find if you want something with a bit of personality. Would definitely book again.
We recently hosted our awards evening at the Iconic VIP Lounge and I couldn't be more thrilled with how the evening turned out. From the very beginning the communication was exceptional. The events team was attentive, efficient and incredibly helpful in ensuring the venue was ready and everything was in place ahead of time. A huge thank you to Justyna who went above and beyond to get the venue prepared a day before the event to do the final checks. Her support and professionalism leading up to the event gave our organisation a complete peace of mind - everything was ready to go! On the night itself the frontline staff were outstanding! They created a welcoming upbeat atmosphere and made sure our guests were well looked after throughout the evening. The venue itself brought an exciting and classy energy - lively, glamourous, and filled with positivity. The casino setting added a unique buzz that everyone loved giving the whole event a touch of Las Vegas right in Manchester! The service, setting and support were second to none. Thank you again to the amazing team and Greg for helping us create such a memorable night at the Icon Lounge!
