About Lower Ground Event Space (New..)
250 Banquet
300 Standing / Reception
The Lower Ground Event Space transforms into whatever your celebration needs it to be. We've designed this versatile room to accommodate 300 standing guests or 250 seated for dining, making it one of Manchester's most flexible party venues. The space pulses with our city's musical DNA, featuring artwork and lighting that pay tribute to legendary Manchester musicians and the iconic Hacienda nightclub. Our LED dancefloor becomes the centerpiece when the music starts, while the dedicated DJ area ensures your entertainment flows perfectly throughout the night. We've watched countless wedding receptions, corporate celebrations, and milestone birthdays come alive in this space, each one shaped to match the host's vision. The room's adaptable layout means we can arrange formal dining setups one evening and create an open party atmosphere the next. Step through to our heated Canalside terrace and you'll discover why guests love this unexpected outdoor element. The water views, ambient lighting, and private bar create a second venue within your venue, perfect for cocktail hours or when guests need fresh air between dancing. Even on cooler Manchester evenings, the heating and comfortable outdoor seating keep the terrace buzzing with conversation. Being directly opposite Piccadilly Train Station means your guests arrive easily, whether they're local or travelling from afar. We're also minutes from the AO Arena and Old Trafford, which opens up possibilities for combining your event with major concerts or matches. Our team regularly coordinates pre-show dinners and post-match celebrations, understanding the timing needed to make these combinations work smoothly. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, we shape this space around your requirements. The building can even be illuminated in your chosen colours, creating a personalised welcome that sets the tone before guests even step inside.
