A unique northern heritage site in Manchester’s Spinningfields, where every event supports People’s History Museum’s mission to share the story of democracy: past, present, and future.

In the heart of Spinningfields, People’s History Museum combines Edwardian industrial architecture with contemporary style. Spaces suit everything: intimate gatherings to large celebrations, with the option to continue into the night. On top of that, the riverside location offers a backdrop for photoshoots.
