Manchester – Leading the way for conference venues

Its reputation built on manufacturing and textiles during the industrial revolution, Manchester has continually reinvented itself and today is notable for its architecture, media links, science and engineering and of course, its music scene.

It is also home to arguably one of the biggest football clubs in the world in Manchester United, although Manchester City are looking to rival them in the global stakes since the takeover by Sheikh Mansour.

Manchester has fantastic transport links and became the first city to open a modern light rail tram system the Metrolink in 1992, linking areas such as Altrincham and Bury to the city.

With Manchester Airport the third busiest in the UK and Manchester Piccadilly train station the busiest mainline station outside of London, allied to fantastic motorway access via the M6, M60 and M62 Manchester is easily accessible.
