About this space

This room radiates a historic atmosphere and provides an interesting backdrop to any business meeting, conference or dinner. This space is ideal for fashion shows or wedding ceremonies, as a runway can be assembled in the long rectangular main room. The space can be expanded for buffets or conferences, due to adjoining doors connecting to smaller side rooms.

The museum's light and elegant design partnered with its delicately painted fine ornate ceiling truly makes a stunning setting for events, which can seat up to 140 guests.

The Height ceiling and light pastel walls make it an ideal place to host a wedding reception.

Good location, easy to get to via the free bus service from the rail station. Friendly, helpful staff. Good facilities and we would use again if meeting in Manchester. The lunch was very good - much better than is usually obtained at other venues.
