The venue also runs promoted or ticketed nights and holds a late-night club licence to accommodate music and dancing.

Location: Royal Exchange Square sits opposite the Gallery of Modern Art and places the venue on a city-centre square surrounded by bars, restaurants and theatres for after-event plans.
